Important Reporting Notes:
- If you are volunteering On Campus while on Post-Completion OPT, you should report your volunteer employment using this form, and also submit a volunteer letter to the ISSS office.
- If you are reporting new employment while on STEM Extension OPT, you must submit a new Form I-983 completed by you and your new employer.
- If you are terminating employment while on STEM Extension OPT, you must submit a "Final Evaluation on Student Progress" using the last section (page 5) of your previous Form I-983, signed by the employer with which you recently terminated employment.
