Documenting OPT Employment Specifically, you should maintain evidence — for each job — of the position held, proof of the duration of that position, the job title, the hours worked per week, contact information for your supervisor or manager, and description of the work.
If you miss the 10 day reporting deadline, employment updates must still be reported although the SEVP Portal will not allow OPT students to report employment that began more than 10 days in the past. As such, you will need an OIS advisor's assistance to submit your employment information for you.
You are required to report new employment or changes to employment within 10 days in your SEVP Portal of the change to maintain F-1 status reporting requirements.
The most common proof of employment is an employment verification letter from an employer that includes the employee's dates of employment, job title, and salary. It's also often called a "letter of employment," a "job verification letter," or a "proof of employment letter."
OPT applications are rejected frequently due to missing or inaccurate information. Here's a checklist to ensure your documents are correct: Form I-765: Use the latest version from the USCIS website, fill in all required fields, and check your answers carefully.
You can only report new employment within 10 days of the employment start date. If you fail to report within 10 days or cannot access the SEVP OPT Portal, you can use the OPT Employer update request at the international student portal. ISS will then manually update your SEVIS record with the employment information.
If you need to report a new employer or update your employment information, complete the Add New Employer or Update Current OPT Employer Information form in the "F-1 Practical Training” menu. Once reported, ISSS will issue a new Form I-20 that will contain a travel signature valid for 6 months from the date of update.
If an H-1B petition filed for an F-1 student with a cap-gap extension is denied, rejected, revoked, or withdrawn, the student will have the standard 60-day grace period (from the date of the notification of the denial, rejection, revocation, or withdrawal of the petition) to depart the United States.
