Need an experienced advice - initial stage of OPT

[KK12]

Hi all,

I am in dilemma for which I need an experienced advice. I am a healthcare professional preparing for my licensing exam which needs a strong preparation (it's in April). My OPT started by mid-Feb 2014 and my 90 days unemployment period will be over by mid-May, 2014. I am in two minds - to just sit and study for my exam OR to volunteer/ find a part-time job and study along with it. I have following questions:

1. Would it be okay if I decide to just focus on my exam and start volunteering from May? (I will have almost 75-80 unemployment days accumulated by then).
2. Should I consider starting volunteer work asap and study for exam along with it? (to not have much unemployment days)
3. Does it get ever questioned (example - during H1 stamping) to have almost 75-80 unemployment days initially and then have volunteer work in your record? Overall, does this have a negative impact on H1b in any way?
4. Which is the best option for me according to you?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks !!!

You don't know if you wil find a job as soon as you start looking. Hence I would start looking now. Do volunteer or part time work and study for the exam together.

If you save yourself these 90 days by volunteering, you will have total of 120 days (provided yours is a STEM degrees and you get OPT Extension) of unemployment which you can use in the future.

On the other hand, if you do not have a STEM degree then you will be getting 90 days. Better use this time to get your whatever certification you want to get.
