As an F-1 visa holder, it’s essential to stay informed about your employment-related options and regulations as well as your tax filing obligations.

There are limited opportunities for F-1 students to work while studying.  If you have questions about employment or taxes, please review these pages for everything you need to know about your requirements and options.

F-1 students can work off-campus only with proper authorization, such as Curricular Practical Training (CPT) or Optional Practical Training (OPT), as appropriate. Contact us for more information.
