標題Re: [北美] F1之後 OPT生效前 出入境
時間Thu May 5 14:45:25 2011
※ 引述《AppleFox (狐狸...)》之銘言:
: 我爬文之後 知道最好是有
: EAD card + offer letter
: + passport + i-20 with signature
: ===
: 我的情況是 我3/7他們收到我的OPT申請 後來也收到收據
: 但是網頁上現在仍是 initial review... (california service center)
: 我現在有offer letter 只缺EAD card (7/13生效)
: 我 5/13畢業 想要六月初回去六月底回來 但是不知道EAD card大概什麼時候到
: (我猜六月初 到六月中到)
: 等於是 我要在畢業日前(5/13) OPT生效日前(7/13) 出入境一趟
: 爬文之後有入境時有兩種情況
: 1) EAD card + offer letter + passport + i-20 with signature
: 2) offer letter + passport + i-20 with signature
: 我知道第二種情況是比較爭議的
: 想請問是不是真的只能拿到EAD卡之後出境
: 或是請人寄回台灣? (感覺也有點風險 而且也不知道回美之前 EAD卡出來沒)
: 想要請問有人有相關經驗嗎? 可以給點建議
: 感謝大家回答
: 以下是相關條文:
: ====
: 2.M. Can I reenter during the 60-day grace period after finishing my program
: or after finishing OPT?
: No.
: 2.N. Can I reenter if my request for OPT is pending?
: Yes, you may reenter to search for employment.
: 2.O. Can I reenter if I left while on OPT?
: If your OPT has been approved and you depart before you get a job, your OPT
: ends and you cannot reenter unless you have a written job offer.
: If you have a job, you may travel and reenter to resume work at the same job
: or you have a written offer for another job.

: Travel Issues
: Until your graduation date, you will travel as you always have as a student,
: even if you have filed for OPT*. The documents you travel with are:
: Valid passport
: Valid (unexpired) F-1 visa stamp in passport
: I-20 (endorsed for travel by OIS) on page 3 of the I-20 (Signature must be
: less than 6 months old.)
: *Filing for OPT has NO effect on your ability to travel before your
: graduation date.
: After your graduation date you will transition from an F-1 student status to
: a status of an F-1 doing OPT. This means you must present to the border
: officials all the documents listed ABOVE that you carried as a student:
: AS WELL AS:
: EAD Card (says “Not Valid for Re-entry” since must be presented with ABOVE
: documents. Alone, it does not suffice.) [8 CFR 214.2 (f) (13) (ii)].
: Proof of current employment or offer letter
: [http://www.ice.gov/sevis/travel/faq_f2.htm] Item 2.O
: It is NOT recommended that you depart the United States before you receive
: the actual EAD card in hand to take with you for travel after your graduation
: date.
: Please note: You will still need to request a travel signature while on OPT.
: If you cannot drop-off your I-20 to OIS, please mail it, along with a
: self-addressed, stamped return envelope and the OIS request form to the
: address below. Processing time is 4 business days.
哈囉~ 我的情況跟你很像~也在為同樣的事情煩惱
1. 目前在網路上發現有人分享他的經驗
他OPT pending 期間出入境 還renew 了F1-vias (這也是跟我近期要面對的關卡一樣)

While-OPT-is-Pending-and-Reapplying-for-F-1-Visa-while-OPT-is-Pending
(我不會縮網頁 請自行連上)
2. 順帶附上 1. 裡面所使用的條例 這在美國官方網頁有寫
a.
http://travel.state.gov/visa/laws/telegrams/telegrams_1444.html
b.
http://www.ice.gov/sevis/students/opt.htm
3. 當我詢問我這邊的國際學生辦事處的人員時
他 不建議我 離境
不過基本上 就他的說法 我需要 『OPT 收據』、『I-20 + 簽名』、『job letter』
『還有帶著有印法條的單子(我的情況是用2 a的項目二)』
以上 資料 供你參考
祝你我大家都順利吧
