  • F1 to pending EAD and I-485

    I am planning to file the form I-485 and I-765 for a married status change.The wait time for I-765 has been very long so I am just wondering how is that going to affect my OPT and future CPT.
    My current OPT ends in July 17th 2021, I am planning to enroll into a Masters program in summer and start CPT when my program starts in May 26th 2021.
    Will I be able to change from OPT to CPT during the pending approval of EAD and I-485?
    Will I be able to work under CPT when both I-485 and I-765 are pending?

    If your OPT is a STEM OPT, you'll be able to extend it for another 2 years.
    I'm not quite sure about the transition from OPT to CPT(by assuming your Master's program is offering CPT from your 1st semester), you will be able to work with your CPT while your AOS applications are pending. I started my AOS process while I was in a MS program and working under CPT. But I would recommend you to talk to your school's ISO ASAP.
