OPT Update Form
Information Update for Students on OPT
While you are on F-1 OPT, you are required to report information to your school about your employment. Please complete the form below any time any of the following change:
- Your residence address
- Your mailing address, if different
- Your employer's name and address
- Any changes in your employment (ending a job, changing jobs)
- If you change your immigration status (for instance, to H1B)
- OR if you leave the U.S. and will no longer be using your F-1 OPT
If you apply for and receive the 24-month STEM extension of OPT, you will have to report the above AND you will have to complete the OPT report form every six months during the 24-month extension even if your employment has NOT changed.
