Please note that a studentâs post-completion OPT employer does not need to be the same as the studentâs STEM OPT extension employer. Students in 60-Day Grace Period Like the 17-month STEM OPT extension, students may not apply for STEM OPT extensions during the 60-day grace period following an initial (usually 12-month) period of post-completion OPT. Accordingly, if a student anticipates that they will enter the 60-day grace period before May 10, 2016, the student should not wait to apply.
What is optional practical training? Optional Practical Training (OPT) is temporary employment that is directly related to an F-1 studentâs major area of study. Under the prior rules, an F-1 student could be authorized to receive up to a total of 12 months of practical training either before (pre-) and/or after (post-) completion of studies.
