How safe is it for an aged out child who is on F-1 to move to OPT?

Answer

There is no inherent problem with pursuing OPT, assuming that one follows the rules. It is important to discuss all proposed OPT employment with one’s designated school official (DSO), to make sure that one is compliant with the requirements. (23.Jul.2018)
