FAQ / When must a student apply for an OPT extension?


* Under the prior regulations, F-1 students had to apply for post-completion OPT prior to graduation.
* This rule allows F-1 students seeking initial post-completion OPT to apply during their 60-day departure preparation periods in the same way that they are allowed to apply for a change to H-1B status during their departure preparation periods.
* Students may apply for an OPT extension at any time prior to the expiration date of their current OPT period.
