Hi,
I have been reading a lot on about new extension rules and came across this fact on lots of places that "During the STEM OPT period, employment for a staffing agency and other labor-for-hire arrangement will not qualify. "
Please refer to this link for more ideas "http://h1bsupport.com/blog/4155/new-issues-for-stem-opt-candidates-it-consulting-and-staffing-companies".
Please let me know if I can still work with IT Consultancy or Staffing at Client site on OPT extension
My first 12 months of OPT will expire on June 7 2016. I do not have job right now and my previous employer has filed H1B in Premium processing which has been picked up already and they are ready to hold it until 30 September 2016. I have heard that H1B transfers are not accepted easily by USCIS in these days too.
I still want to apply for OPT extension to be on safer side. Please let me know what are my options. This is the page for more info.
Thank you,
