______ I confirm that I have been “lawfully enrolled on a full-time basis for one full academic year” at an eligible
institution. I understand that receiving CPT authorization and engaging in CPT without meeting eligibility requirements is
a status violation and may impact future USCIS applications.
______ I understand and confirm that I will not begin training until I have received my new, CPT-authorized I-20. Starting
work before I have received my new, CPT-authorized I-20 is a status violation and cause for termination.
______ I understand CPT will be authorized per the dates on the job offer letter, not to exceed one year and not to start prior to
when I become eligible for CPT (see above).
______ I understand that I must re-apply for additional CPT authorization if I intend to engage in training outside of the dates
authorized on my CPT-endorsed I-20, even if the training is with the same employer as a previous authorization.
______ I understand that CPT is approved for a specific employer and position and that I may not change employers or positions
without submitting a new CPT application.
______ I understand that being authorized for more than 364 days of full-time CPT at my current degree-level will result in my
ineligibility for Optional Practical Training (OPT) at my current degree-level and that it is my responsibility to monitor all
full-time CPT authorization dates if I am interested in retaining my eligibility for OPT. I understand that part-time CPT has
no impact on OPT eligibility.
______ I authorize the release of any information necessary for this request and authorize any changes needed to complete my
request.
