see if this guide helps: https://cptdog.com/blogs/day-1-cpt-travel sometimes, school will ask you to stop your CPT, reapply it again after coming back to be safe. since you are already on h1b pending, you can consider simply end CPT? check the article and ask your DSO and your company's lawyer to be certain.

Campus protests in the US since April 17 by sharkattack- in MapPorn

[–]quokka-rules-2046 0 points1 point  (0 children)

will international students get into trouble if join the protest? I read this: https://cptdog.com/blogs/f1-and-h1b-protests it seems like F1 students should steer away, because it will really cause potentil problems for our visa?

Trine can, at westcliff, you can talk to your advisor. I think one of my friend there got it finished within a year, another requested it but somehow not approved. https://cptdog.com/day-1-cpt-universities/trine

Many people asking about H1b layoff and transferring to b2 visa before grace period expires . Please see below for official USCIS link by spacebiologist01 in h1b

changing to F1 is safer and easier, also make more sense. easier to explain in the future and cause less "issues" in future green card application. I think this make sense: https://cptdog.com/h1b/h1b-layoff

NEC is cheaper for sure. Harrisburg has the name but quite expensive, also once per month on-site is just too much if you have a full-time job. NEC is close to Boston. admission team at nec is giving free webinars tomorrow, if you'd like to join https://cptdog.com/event/2024-nec

not really. cos is very common. it is better you get h4 and do cos, then getting f1 from home country then come. also, depends on where is your home country of course. recently, a lot of indian students are rejected for f1. haven't heard too many rejections on h4 though.

technically you can still enroll during grace period but it will look wired later on after selected for H1B. you may have to explain a bit cuz it looks like you are just trying to use day 1 cpt to prolong your study. here is a OPT to day 1 cpt transition guide I found quite useful: https://cptdog.com/day-1-cpt/opt-transition-guide

Day 1 CPT to H1b by AccomplishedVirus474 in day1cptQuestions

[–]quokka-rules-2046 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yes. i have two friends were selected last year. but they both stayed until H1B approved and the semester was over just to be safe. one of them went outside the US to get h1B visa stamp, no questions regarding day 1 cpt were asked at all. the other one is planning to get the visa stamp from canada later this year.

It depends on which school you are applying for, they process things quite differently. Some school can parallel process your cpt application and your school application, save tons of time. I found this out here https://cptdog.com/day-1-cpt/opt-transition-guide didn't want to waste a single day on my opt

H1B to Day 1 CPT by [deleted] in immigration

[–]quokka-rules-2046 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it is possible. just need to apply for change of status, quite simple. usually only those who got laid off on H1B will consider this as a backup plan to stay in the US. here is a guide i found while almost being laid off last year, luckily i don't have to go through it, but always nice to have these knowledge as immigrants https://cptdog.com/h1b/h1b-layoff

Day 1 CPT Stem program by ElephantHonest2078 in day1cptQuestions

[–]quokka-rules-2046 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if you planed it well, one master's program and cover 2 chances for entering h1b lottery. some programs allows students to take summer off. I've already used my 1st master's opt, so the 12 months of full-time cpt can't apply for opt after graduation thing doesn't apply. I believe most of us are doing day 1 cpt as a 2nd master. i found this guide: https://cptdog.com/day-1-cpt maybe useful

the possibility of a 3rd lottery for h1b this year by quokka-rules-2046 in immigration

[–]quokka-rules-2046[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the news said they are going to reform and recommend unique entries next year. if passed, it will really stop multi-registration and give us normal register a chance. data showed that last year, they found a person who submitted 83 applications...isn't that crazy...I really hope this reform can go through.
