J1H1的税问题

我J1呆了2年转为H1，是不是免税3年呢？我在学校。
我总觉得应该免税，很多H1朋友都免3年税，可我从转成H1以后，就开始叫联邦税和州税，与学校的PAYROLL谈过，TA的答复是:

You will now have to pay taxes due to changing your visa status from J-1 to H1B. You first enter the US as J-1 visa, primary purpose to be researcher. You changed you status without returning to China for 365 days to reestablish residency. You changed your status while you were in the US. You stated that a friend of yours entered the US on H1B and receives treaty benefit. Yes this is correct because your friend entered the US on H1B and did not change his visa status. The treaty benefit is
based on what visa you held and where you came from the first time you entered the US. If you change anything you must return to your home country and reside there for 365 days and reenter on the new visa status.

现在收到了W-2表，上面的收入是应该赋税的年工资(不包括J1时期的工资) 以及已交的联邦税和州税，请问
(1) 怎么才能要回这些税？
(2) 应该填写那个税表？

谢谢。
