Indian student’s experience: OPT to out-of-status; SEVIS delays add confusion
Indian students on F-1 OPT face SEVIS termination issues when H-1B petitions are withdrawn. Even with withdrawal before the start date, SEVIS can auto-terminate F-1 status, leaving students out of status. This highlights the need for careful coordination with DSOs and USCIS for timely record correction to maintain legal standing.
