Episode Synopsis

In this episode of the Immigration Conversation podcast, Counsel Andrea Rush and Associate Mayu Hirao explore the limitations of the F-1 Work Authorization, as well as common filing and processing issues that F-1 students may encounter. An international student typically holds F-1 status and can obtain work authorization in one of three ways: Curricular Practical Training (CPT), Pre-Completion Optional Practical Training (OPT), or Post-Completion OPT, which can be extended for F-1 students with STEM degrees.
