Details
Do you have questions about moving from F-1 Optional Practical Training (OPT) or J-1 Academic Training (AT) to H-1B status? The H-1B Lottery? Other non-immigrant options for working in the U.S. after OPT/AT? To explore these issues more and learn how the cap H-1B lottery works, join us for an immigration information session with Attorney Aaron Blumberg. If you are a degree-seeking student at Yale, graduating in May or August 2025, this session is for you! After this session, you will have the information you need to plan ahead and navigate your immigration after graduation and beyond.
Attorney Blumberg is a Partner at Fragomen’s Boston Office and has been an active member of the American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA) and NAFSA, Association of International Educators. Before the Boston Office, Attorney Blumberg was also a Partner at their Miami Office for 14 years, specializing in academic and healthcare immigration law.
Your OISS adviser will communicate with you on how to apply for F-1 OPT/J-1 AT in the early Spring 2025 semester, so stay tuned for upcoming OISS communications. This session by Attorney Blumberg will focus on how to stay and continue working in the United States AFTER your OPT/AT benefit ends.
This session will be held over Zoom. Please note that the recording will be shared only with registered attendees.
You may also submit questions related to visas after graduation when you register. Questions about F-1 OPT and J-1 AT are better directed to your OISS adviser.
