Hey guys, what Day 1 CPT method do you all take? I heard there are online and hybrid options. Just curious if the online option can hinder the h1b process. Is hybrid a safe option to go for the h1b process?

Isn’t that illegal ? Day 1 CPT feels like cheating the system.

Job with day 1 CPT as a way to circumvent H1 or Visa restrictions should be illegal If it’s not.
Consultancies who cheat shud be fined. Absolutely trash and exploitative.

BIA Briefs: I’m an associate at an immigration law firm. I determined that immigration isn’t for me So I gave the managing partner my 2 weeks. He wants me to wrap up some BIA briefs before I leave however I’m reviewing the record for a lot these and I’m seeing that a lot of the arguments for Asylum, Withhold, and CAT are incomplete. How I’m going to argue that the IC abused its discretion or misapplied the law when we made a facially insufficient argument for relief?
