What’s the new restriction?

you cannot travel to client location on STEM visa

What’s the source?

Omg I’ll be so happy if I’m in that situation! Perfect excuse for not on travel project lol

Third party sites include local projects at local client sites too, no? Meaning people on OPT can’t be at any client site? Highly restrictive isn’t it?

I think it’s only for STEM students on OPT

@EY1. It’s not a good situation. Big 4 will not sponsor opts anymore due to these restrictions during the next waves of recruitments

Either convince current client to allow you work remote from your office or they will look for other assignments where this is allowed .
She didn’t talked about what if they don’t find such clients 🙈
