  • Expired Passport-OPT

    My passport expired this April and I am applying to renew it. However the renew process is taking time. About 2 months and I am applying for my OPT as well since my DSO applied for my new I-20 which will be here in the next week.I know they ask for a photocopy of your passport too when applying for OPT. Can I send the photocopy of my current passport(which expired this April) And send the new one later once it comes ? Otherwise I will loose a lot of time as my employer is waiting for me to start August end. I garduate by August end, so I am applying early. Will my application be denied ? Accepted ? Will I have to submit again ? Please help.

          Apply for passport in premium process. Would take U 1-2 weeks to get the passport. Keep all the Opt documents ready and the day U receive the passport take copies and appy for opt.

            USCIS won't give directly denial and first they will ask Request for evidence ( all required documents)

              You can send proof that you have applied for your passport and that the process is taking a long time. Depending on the school / luck, they could approve it. Otherwise, you could get the (request for evidence) RFE.

                  You can submit the copy of the old passport and proof that you have applied for renewal of the passport.
