1 OPT Work Permission for F-1 Students International Programs Office

2 Optional Practical Training This Power Point will: Outline OPT Basics Review Application Process & Timing Discuss work options in U.S. after OPT

3 Optional Practical Training OPT = Temporary employment for F-1 students to gain practical training directly related to their major field of study. Types of OPT: Pre-completion used prior to graduation Post-completion used after graduation STEM extension additional 24-months of OPT for STEM degree holders

4 Practical Considerations During OPT period: You remain in F-1 status OPT is not a status, it is a benefit YSU holds your SEVIS record IPO is still your F advisor and YSU is your visa sponsor!

5 OPT Usage Eligible for 12 months of OPT per advanced degree level Once OPT has been granted, you have used the benefit

6 Employment What work can you do during 12-month Post Completion OPT? Any/All As long as the work: Is related to your level and field of study Paid, unpaid, volunteer, contract Job title doesn t matter Nature of the work matters No job offer needed to apply

7 OPT is a Three Part Process Your department confirms your expectancy to graduate IPO recommends OPT in SEVIS and issues the OPT I-20 USCIS Adjudicates your application *$410 filing fee * day processing time

8 USCIS issues the Employment Authorization Document (EAD)

9 Employment Authorization Document (EAD) You can only legally work in the U.S. when: You have received EAD Are within valid dates printed on EAD

10 IMPORTANT Application Timelines!! USCIS must receive your OPT application: No more than 90 days BEFORE program completion date No more than 60 days AFTER program completion date OPT recommendation no more than 30 days old

11 OPT Denial 1. You ve already used the benefit 2. You apply outside of the timelines If OPT is denied before end of 60-day grace period, it may be possible to apply again. If OPT is denied after 60 day grace period, the benefit is forfeited.

12 The Application is a Two Part Process Step 1. OPT Recommendation Form Signed by your academic advisor and submitted to IPO Goal: new I-20 with OPT recommendation I-20 Processing Time: 3 business days Mail to USCIS Goal: EAD card Step 2. Application to USCIS EAD Processing Time: Up to 90 days

13 The Application Process: Top of Advisor s Form

14 The Application Process: Bottom of Advisor s Form Last day of finals/ classes Your academic advisor completes this section. OPT cannot begin before this date.

15 Program Completion Date on the I DEC 2017 Program end date = academic advisor s end date

16 PhD Students: Potential End Dates Date of defense Date corrections will be completed Date you turn in dissertation and committee signs off OR Employment start date (if you have passed the qualifiers)

17 Program Completion Date = Last Day of on-campus work at YSU!

18 Choosing Your OPT Start Date BASED ON YOUR COMPLETION DATE START DATE: Earliest start date: day after program completion OR Up to 60 calendar days after program completion **NO MORE THAN 60 DAYS! START DATE 12/16/ /17/2017 2/14/2017

19 Early Start: Things to Consider When Choosing an OPT Start Date Work permission continues immediately after program completion, so on-campus work could continue Late Start: More time to look for a job Won t cut into 90 days of unemployment Consider travel plans

20 Choosing Your OPT End Date Eligible for 365 days of OPT: *Example: Start date = 1/8/2018.End date = 1/7/2019 Remember! If you applied for a period of pre-completion OPT, you must deduct that time from your 12-months. Part-time pre-opt deducted at ½ rate. Full-time pre-opt deducted at full rate. NOTE: If you choose less than 12 months, only way to redeem remainder of 12 months is to go back to school, complete another program (at same level) and reapply for OPT.

21 The Application Process: OPT Dates CAREFUL! Once you mail your application to USCIS, you CAN T change your OPT dates! OPT Pending? Status is fine to stay in the U.S. but NO WORK without EAD!

22 Submit OPT Recommendation Form Completed Advisor s Form Turn in today Drop off at IPO front desk OPT I-20 ready in no more than 3 business days

23 OPT I-20: The 30 Day Rule!! OPT application must be received by USCIS within 30 days of the date your OPT I-20 is issued. Be ready to file when you turn in your request! I-20 more than 30 days past issuance date = OPT DENIED!

24 OPT I-20 Page 2 OPT Recommendation New Travel Signature valid 12 months

25 EAD s Issued After Requested Start Date If you request dates 12/17/17 to 12/16/18 and USCIS does not process your card until 2/1/18, your EAD will have dates 2/1/18 to 1/31/19. No work until card is received and you are within start and end dates on card!

26 EAD s Issued After Requested Start Date You are eligible for 12 months of OPT in the 14-month period following program completion. Ex. If your program end date is 12/16/17 and you wait to file your OPT application so USCIS does not process your card until 4/1/18, your EAD will have dates 4/1/18 to 2/14/19.

27 Timing of Your Application Be aware of processing times: Up to 90 days to be approved..or longer if application is returned, something is missing, etc. Cannot Expedite OPT!! Trying to expedite can slow down the process!
