I'm converting straight from STEM OPT to Green Card.
PERM filed last month. On STEM OPT
We do
F1 is non-dual intent so you’ll have to convert to H1 or some other dual intent visa first
Rising Star
Not 100% true. You can do the PERM and I-140 and even I-485 without issue for a F-1 visa holder. The intent issue would only arise if one travels or attempts to renew/extend their F-1 visa post-I-485 filing.
Rising Star
I’m curious for those on F-1 whose employers are pursuing PERMs, are you from ROW or India/China?
Rising Star
I know of no employers who do this. If you are from China or India, an employer is highly unlikely to do this.
Rising Star
Won’t happen for India/China folks but know people from ROW who’ve done this.
Congratulations to the folks who weren’t born in India or China 😭
