Hi,
I was recently laid off from my job.
I am currently on 17 months OPT. I have been working through out the initial 12 months OPT and up until. So, I do not have unemployment on my OPT up until now.
According to USCIS 90 days of unemployment is allowed during 12 months opt and additional 30 days is allowed for 17 months OPT for a total aggregate of 120 days over the entire 29 months OPT.
Does that mean I will only have 30 days to find another job? I have read few blogs some says 90 days, other says 120 days.
Can anybody help me with that?
