Hi !
I am currently on F1 and have been offered a full time job starting in Sept.
I am due to graduate in december, however my last 2 classes do not require me to be on campus, since they are offered online.
I would like to know about my options to be able to join the company as soon as possible and legally be able to work.
1) Can I start my OPT 3 months early ( September instead of December(when I am supposed to graduate)) ?
2) How long is the OPT period valid..more than 12 months ?
3) How long does it take to get the OPT approved ?
4) How long after the OPT expires can I stay in the country ?
thanks
