Microsoft DAY-1 CPT
Microsoft recruiter contacted me about a Software Engineer 2 position. I'm in my final year of STEM-OPT and have one last opportunity for the H1 lottery. I am planning to apply for DAY1 CPT as a backup. If I pass the interview: 1. Can I receive an offer from Microsoft's immigration team if I mention that I can continue working if my h1 lottery gets rejected since I have DAY-1 CPT? 2. Is it right to apply for DAY-1 CPT? #Microsoft #Day1CPT #softwareengineer #immigration
Microsoft should ship you to Canada temporarily. That's a less headache option than Day_1 cpt imo
USCIS has a rule that you cannot apply for CPT unless you complete 2 semesters or 9 months in the college. Also any international student who is not living within 50miles of college or not taking atleast 3 in-person classes are considered illegal and their SEVIS can be cancelled any time.
I have not heard of MSFT supporting day 1 cpt. They usually send people to vancouver. Make sure recruiter knows about 1 year left on StEM and when you get offer, also make sure HM knows.
Day 1 CPT is illegal
lol stop making a fool out of people. It is not illegal. Permission for CPT is with the college - if they allow it, you can do itπ
I have checked it on several sources and it is said it is legal as long as you are doing it in right college
