Hi! Great information in your video. I have 57 days left on my OPT but have a job offer to start mid May which means if i stay it will be more than 90 days. My question is, can i leave USA only to come back for that job like a week before? Again thank you for your time.
while being employed by an university, I know they updated my SEVIS info. If I get a contract job or even start a business, how do I report those changes to the USCIS? Under contract jobs does your employer provide a W-2 to file for taxes? like say a tutoring platform where you get paid hourly? with that F1 visa you'd still have to pay for insurance and retirement plans on your own? I know these stuff were deducted and filed by my university when I was a GTA.
Thank you for sharing! I have two questions. Question 1, I put opt start date as July 8,2021on the application. And I have not get opt application status update until now. When would the unemployment day start? Question 2, if I never get a job until the 90 unemployment days, do I still have 60 grade period after that? Thank you!
Not until you've received the EAD and start date has been reached. Check this video out: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-LKRX4Smbg0M.html
You said that people with STEM background can only work as a full time employee under either 1 or several employers. But then you searched for electrical engineering jobs as contractor, which is a STEM degree. Am I missing something?
Those examples are for OPT not STEM OPT. You're right that electrical engineering is a STEM degree. A job as a 1099 independent contractor does not qualify for the STEM OPT Extension, as there has to be a direct employer-employee relationship (a W2 employment).
Hi I’m on first OPT and failed to report employer information to my school. It is more than 90 days now, but I have proof from my employer that I worked for them. I have pay stubs, W2, Bank statements, offer letter and experience letter for proofs. Could you please let me know what can I do? Should I leave the country?
I'll recommend you speak with an experienced immigration attorney for the best advice on your personal case. OPT students are required to report employment in order to be compliant.
@@aseshgiduturu8530 Ok, thank you. Because my 90 days will be reached soon, I had a fews interviews lined up but I’m not sure to have an offer before reaching the 90 days and I’m not ready to leave at all
