c*****d 发帖数: 6045 | 1 学校的OPT申请上有这么一句话,
I understand that if I am a master or doctoral student, I must graduate
before I complete my OPT employment. If I do not graduate before completing
my one year of OPT, I will lose my legal non-immigrant status in the US.
这个不对吧,pre opt不都是opt之后再毕业吗? | c*****d 发帖数: 6045 | 2 在网上搜了一下,好像是这样
如果课程已经修完,正在准备论文,pre和post都可以full time employment
假如opt是3/1/2012-3/1/2013
post要求在3/1/2013之前答辩,因为I20不能再延期了
pre则可以在3/1/2013之后答辩,i20可以再延期
不知道我的理解对不对,请明白人指教一下
参考acsu.buffalo.edu
Please note the differences below between Pre-Completion and Post-Completion
OPT for students who have finished all degree requirements and who are
working on their thesis or dissertation.
Pre-Completion OPT
-Unemployment is not counted
-Cannot apply for the 17-month STEM extension
-Not eligible for the H-1B Cap-Gap extension
-May extend I-20 if extra time is needed to complete degree requirements
-Must apply for Post-Completion OPT if employment will continue after the
degree conferral date
Post-Completion OPT
-Unemployment is counted (You must not exceed 90 calendar days of
unemployment during your 12 months of OPT.)
-Must work a minimum of 20 hours per week
-May not extend I-20 if extra time is needed to complete degree
requirements
-May apply for the 17-month STEM extension
-Eligible for the H-1B Cap-Gap extension | c*****d 发帖数: 6045 | | m****l 发帖数: 42 | 4 我觉得你的理解是对的。这个毕业不及时主要是对post OPT一年为限,如果12个月后到
期不毕业,就没有F1身份了。当然,我想如果可以使用17个的extension,仍然还是可
以再支撑一段时间的。 |
