Broadcast Message: Reporting Volunteer Positions During opt
Employment
To: Students on OPT
Date: May 29, 2018
Re: Reporting Volunteer Positions During OPT Employment
Number: 1805-01
General Information
Volunteer positions that are not directly related to your course of study do
not qualify as optional practical training (OPT) and must not be listed as
OPT employment. Reporting non-qualifying volunteer opportunities as OPT
employment will be deemed a violation of your reporting requirements and
subject you to removal from the United States.
In addition, non-qualifying volunteer positions do not stop the accrual of
unemployment which is limited to a total of 90 days during OPT. Accordingly,
if you have been unemployed for more than 90 days, you must leave the
United States or be subject to removal even if you have volunteered while
unemployed.
Note: A volunteer position does not meet the conditions of a science,
technology, engineering and mathematics OPT extension. Any questions related
to qualifying OPT employment or accrual of unemployment should be discussed
with your designated school official (DSO) or addressed to the SEVP
Response Center by calling 800-892-4829 or emailing [email protected]
