Вставка
- Опубліковано 23 сер 2024
- Day 1 CPT is one of those only options left for people who aren't lucky with the H-1B lottery. Since they need to maintain their status in the US and still keep working on the job that they've managed to get, Day 1 CPT acts like a boon.
But USCIS doesn't always view it kindly. So, while there are a lot of pros of opting for a Day 1 CPT program, there are some cons too.
In this video we discuss the various Pros and Cons of Day 1 CPT with Immigration Lawyer Sonal Sharma.
Check it out.

Can we travel to our home country while being on day 1 CPT?
Hello, I received my bachelor's and my master's degrees in computer engineering.
I applied for a perm app and we are at the 3rd stage. that is to say, we did the prevailing wage det, and we did the recruitment phase and filed for the perm app but waiting for that result.
would it be ok for me to get an associates of applied science from a community college in a computer related field and use day 1 cpt? or would that potentially get me in PERM app trouble
Those are 2 different things. Shouldn't be a problem.. but have you maxed out your h1b 6 years?
It'll be worth it to consult with an immigration lawyer once
What if an international student coming from India takes day1 cpt??? Iam not talking about after missing h1b three times.
You may not get the F1 Visa directly for a day 1 CPT course from India.
Any idea about the tax details for cpt?
Hi, I have a question. I m on H4EAD and my spouse got layed off.
Can I enroll into day1cpt to keep my job? Thinking to convert my h4 to f1
@@greenapple9204 it'll be best to move to F1 and enroll in day 1 CPT yes. First, check with your employer if they have any issues with you being on day 1 cpt
@@itsokyaaar thanks a lot yes I will check with them asap
@@itsokyaaarI have a follow up question should my spouse who is h1b now convert into f2 or should go for b1/b2
Will there be a problem if he then later converts from f2 to h1
He has I-140 approved
Do you advise to wait for the H1b results to apply for day1 CPT or should one already start the application process beforehand?
If you have time, you should wait. But do check out colleges and their application processes to be prepared
Thanks very much for this information,but I will like to know if you can be paid for CPT
Can a student do CPT day 1 and be paid
@@metugeleonel2614 what does that mean? Day 1 CPT is a loophole people use when they can't get through H1B lottery after their final attempt and they still have a job. So, if you're working then you'll be paid. The coll doesn't pay you to study there
