pontevecchio Posted August 14, 2013 Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 Why and how would you get CPT on Demand? Link to comment
omshiv Posted August 14, 2013 Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 CPT is abuse. Dont even think about it. Link to comment
JoeF Posted August 14, 2013 Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 CPT is NOT for working in some job. It is ONLY for work as integral part of the curriculum. It also is not for working during summer recess. Link to comment
asugrad Posted August 15, 2013 Report Share Posted August 15, 2013 Why can't you want till October ? CPT always haunts you. Wait till JoeF responds to this ;) Link to comment
sk7 Posted August 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2013 I am planning to enroll in new course program in Fall and take the CPT as I am getting a good job offer and if I wait till Oct probably might loose the position. Link to comment
asugrad Posted August 16, 2013 Report Share Posted August 16, 2013 If you take cpt and work for the so called GOOD company. In future when the GOOD company files your GC, the past CPT might haunt you with sleep less nights in the form of rfe etc Link to comment

Wat a nerve..you are openly discussing your plans to abuse OPT. It is going to affect your status. Link to comment

No real university would give CPT to somebody just signing up. What you are trying is abuse of the F1, and abuse of CPT. If you want to study, concentrate on the studies. If you want to work, get an H1. Abusing CPT will kill your career in the US. Link to comment

CPT is not for H1 job, it's part of F1. Please do some research and know what's exactly CPT is. If you take CPT now, then you have to forget US forever. Link to comment

If that employer wants you then tell him to wait till Oct 1st. Link to comment
