就业信息

社会保险号

在美国获得的收入是要纳税的. 获得工作的学生, 无论是在校内还是校外, must first inform the DSO to obtain work authorization and request a letter to apply for a 社会保险号.

在校园

F-1学生可以在校园里工作, 在获得民政事务处的许可下, for a maximum of 20 hours per week while school is in session, and may work full time while school is not in session during vacation periods. Students may not continue to work on campus after the program completion date.

在校外

F-1 students may not work off campus until they have completed one full academic year of study in the USA. 如果你对实习感兴趣, 校外实习或其他类型的工作, 你必须向民政事务处申请许可. 约个时间讨论一下选择, obtain permission and ensure that the proper procedure is followed.

实际培训

There are two types of practical training: 课程实践训练(CPT) and 选择性实习训练(OPT).

A. 课程实践训练(CPT)

CPT is temporary authorization for practical training directly related to your major program of study. CPT may be part time (20 hours per week) or full time (40 hours per week).

Failure to obtain DSO permission prior to engaging in CPT is a status violation and will result in termination of your student status for "unauthorized employment".
