Our dedicated team of immigration experts is well-versed in the intricacies of the U.S. immigration system and can help you explore various training options that align with your academic goals and professional aspirations. From Optional Practical Training (OPT) to Curricular Practical Training (CPT), we can guide you through the process of obtaining the necessary authorization to engage in practical training while maintaining your legal status in the country.

Optional Practical Training (OPT)

OPT allows F-1 students to work off-campus in a job directly related to their major area of study. This provides an excellent opportunity to gain practical work experience related to your field of study, fostering your professional growth and preparing you for the competitive job market.

At The Deng Law Firm, we understand that obtaining OPT authorization involves meticulous attention to detail and adherence to specific timelines. Our experienced attorneys can assist you in preparing and filing the necessary documents, ensuring that your OPT application is submitted accurately and in a timely manner.

Furthermore, we provide comprehensive guidance on maintaining your legal status while on OPT, understanding your employment-related rights and limitations, and transitioning from OPT to other visa categories if you wish to continue working in the United States.

Curricular Practical Training (CPT)

CPT offers F-1 and M-1 students the opportunity to engage in practical training as an integral part of their academic program. It allows for practical work experience that is directly related to your major coursework and is an excellent way to gain hands-on skills in your chosen field.

Our knowledgeable team at The Deng Law Firm can assist you in understanding the eligibility requirements for CPT and guide you through the process of obtaining the necessary authorization. We can help you explore various training opportunities, ensuring they align with your academic curriculum and meet the criteria set by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS).

Additionally, we provide extensive support in preparing your CPT application, ensuring that all required documentation is accurately completed and submitted on time. Our team is dedicated to helping you make the most of your educational experience in the United States.
