Must-see for international students: American work visa application strategy

Do you know any international students with F/KLOC-0 visa? I can only work on campus while studying. If you want to work in the United States, you must have a company transfer visa to H 1. So, how to apply for OPT? This article will introduce the OPT application strategy for you in detail.

OPT application conditions

Students with F- 1 visa can only get an OPT period of 12 months for each degree. However, you are only eligible to apply if your F- 1 status has been completed for 9 consecutive months. If you study full-time in another capacity (not F- 1 visa), this time can be counted as these 9 months.

Select the application time

You must apply for OPT 90 days before and 60 days after completing your studies, otherwise the Immigration Bureau may reject your application.

Extend the selection period

For some majors, such as science, technology, engineering and mathematics, you can apply to extend the OPT period for an additional 65,438+07 months.

Employer information

After getting OPT, students can't be unemployed for more than 90 days. After finding a job, you should also remember to submit the relevant information of your employer to DHS.
