Long story short, I lost my passport which had my F1 Visa. I applied for a new passport and have the new one with me but in order to get the Visa stamp, I need to go back to India to get the stamp. Haven’t done that yet. My current OPT ends in July and it’s time to apply for OPT extension. While looking at the document requirements to apply, I see that a copy of the F1 Visa is required. What do I do? Has anyone gone thru this process before? Please help
You should use a scanned copy of your visa stamp. You scanned it before you lost your passport, right? It's the first thing you do when you get the visa stamp.
You might have to use the data page of your old passport as well.
Always check with your legal immigration team for these kind of help.
Ask your Amazon’s HR/legal team. You might be fine if you have a copy of the old visa and let them know you lost.
