Can a person apply for initial OPT I20 slightly after the program end date?
Basically, if the program end date is let’s say December 31, can I REQUEST (not send my application) a new opt i20 from school DSO on January 15? Or such a move when you are in a grace period is not allowed? My goal is to apply for opt aslate as possible, as I am expecting the decision on my immigration application and worry that filing for opt may result in interview or even jeopardize my immigration filing. submitted by /u/PerformanceOk1888 to r/f1visa [link] [comments]
