Dear Students,
ISSS wants to remind all students who may be applying for OPT that they MUST follow all the application procedures listed on the ISSS website here.
DO NOT APPLY FOR OPT ONLINE UNTIL YOU RECEIVE AN UPDATED I-20 WITH OPT RECOMMENDATION FROM ISSS ON PAGE TWO.
You must submit the Optional Practical Training record in the ISSS Portal BEFORE you apply online to USCIS. Students who apply for OPT online with USCIS before they apply for the OPT I-20 will have their application denied and will lose the OPT Application fee and need to apply again.
If you have any questions please reach out to your ISSS Advisor.
Best regards,
ISSS
