International students: OPT extension may be CANCELED! Please stand up and
fight for your rights NOW!
Department of homeland security is asking for public comments on internet
regarding the new rule about 24-month OPT extension, but there are too many
US WORKERS OPPOSING to this rule! They leave huge amount of negative
comments and even ask government to CANCEL OPT extension! Unfortunately,
positive comments are very, very few since most international students are
not aware of this. Therefore we need to ask everybody, especially
international student, to go to the website and support the rule! It’s due
on Nov 18 and we only have a few days left! Hurry up or we may completely
lose OPT extension for STEM students!

WELCOME WHOLE HEARTEDLY this new Rule for OPT Stem Extension for 2 years ALL
IN THE US WILL BE EQUALLY BENEFITED. Above every one the country and its
benefit.US economy will thrive because of this new rule, because of the
skill training. Culture will not get affected.
Understand that this rule not against Americans and Citizens, who are
protected by this updated rule for their employment that no American should
be removed from service because of this OPT and their PAY should not be
reduced because of this rule as adequate measures taken. Also the new rule
restricts that there is no less pay for any of the OPT students
Understand that there is a clear and well defined difference between
ILLEAGAL and LEGAL immigrants/temporary workers to fill the skilled jobs and
we should not create confusion about this rule on that basis as this is
LEGAL OPT. Please do not deviate from this Legal OPT Concept, by citing
irrelevant points of illegal migration/illegal immigration etc.
Similarly in global community like US there is no such thing as foreigners
being hired by employers, as everything is conducted legally in US.
Already students have started to go to ENGLAND because of the OPT extension
is stopped by the court in US and there the education is less expensive for
Masters, since it is one year only and lot of employment opportunities.
America will be the loser for each Masters seat evolving around $125000 per
year as college fees. If there are no students for Masters Stem, there will
be a loss of $ 31250000000 per year to USA with 250000 proposed foreign
students. Total Loss to US Colleges and Universities in 10 year will be
$312500000000!
If the stem extension is not continued around 70000 students have to leave
the country by 16 Feb 2016 and their projects/work will be halted, because
of no skilled worker is available and it will affect employers/Industry for
$70000000000 worth of projects/works/research and other revenues to US for 1
year till 16 Feb 2017
Most of the students paid University non resident tuition and other fees to
US Government at a very high rate and if this opt extension is not there, IT
IS A GUARANTEE THAT NO FOREIGN STUDENT WILL COME TO STUDY IN US. They are
not ready to study only bookish knowledge which can be got in their
countries and through online itself.
America is survived by the people, skilled workers and big and large
business and it is the duty of DHS to protect the US economy and US people
by enacting rules/legislation like this. If this is not done by DHS, who
will do?
OPT Students also paid all the university fees without any funding from
University or Government or from teaching assistantships, as any other US
Citizens and OPT students are not getting any Social Security Benefits and
nothing is free in this country to OPT students and Medical trust funds and
please note not to deviate the fact that there is $0 for Social Security for
OPT students and they are contributing to US economy by paying TAX to Govt.
H1B applications now is 210000 and the quota for MS Students is 20K and most
of the Masters student did not get H1b this year. With scholarships in UK
the future students, with 1 year most students will not come to US at all,
if you will not imposing the rule for OPT extension
Increase H1b quota to 500000 per year and Masters quota to 200000 per year
is in all fairness as the current lottery system is unfair and the H1B cap
does not meet the demand. US is the land of equal opportunities and is
poised for greater growth,
All the current students will go back to their country with the knowledge
they gained by their education and US will be losing their talent and skills.
It is a false statement that more than 86K (jobs per year) of Americans are
taken away and not supported by any stats and this proposed extension will
ensure that no American jobs are taken away.
Please note that all the students are not selected for OPT and only STEM
students from E-Verify companies are selected. Any opposition from other non
stems students should be viewed separately from the rule and should not be
studied along with this rule.
Any degree without any concrete work experience/training is a waste of
education.
First year of OPT students gain very little experience and as proposed in
the new rule, if the OPT should be extended for 2 years with guided and well
programmed and monitored by employer and University( But with less paper or
drudgery work for approval) for the students to get practical training.
If the rule is not implemented then US will be 20 years back in 5 years,
with obsolete technologies/industry practices etc. and economy wild be badly
affected. The thought of reducing the number of H1b and other visas should
not allowed as it will affect US economy very badly. |
