nethrapm@gmail.com Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 Hi I am on F1, OPT starting from 8th Jun. My course is eligible for Stem extension(17 months) I got a job offer, but the company wants me to work as an Independent Contractor (1099) Job role is relevant to my current degree. I have 2 questions 1. Will there be any problem in getting STEM OPT extension? 2. Will there be any problems in future getting H1B? Please let me know. Thanks Quote Link to comment
livliv Posted June 11, 2015 Report Share Posted June 11, 2015 You can. For getting extension, your employer must be enrolled in EVerify. Quote Link to comment
