International students desperately need faster adjudication of their OPTs. They have waited for months now.

@USCIS We have been waiting for over 4 months for our F1 OPT. Please adjudicate Oct-Dec cases first. Why is @USCIS adjudicating Feb cases now? These students need OPT for their June job offers, while we are waiting patiently with our job start dates 2-3 months behind us. #F1optEadDelay

[optDelay @OptDelay]

@USCIS We request @USCIS to process Oct - Dec cases of F1 OPT first! We graduated in Fall and are waiting with job offers. It is unfair to us when @USCIS does not honor order of applications and adjudicates Feb cases to improve average processing time. #f1optlockboxdelay #F1optEadDelay

@SenFeinstein Dear Senator, International students have filed a lawsuit against @USCIS due to delays in adjudicating F1 OPT cases pending for months in these tough times. Could you please help us with an inquiry to protect our right to practical training?#F1optEadDelay

@SenFeinstein Dear Senator, in these tough times, @USCIS has kept international students' F1 OPT applications pending for 4+ months. We are unable to join our employers, could you please help us with an inquiry?(submitted case details to your office) Thank you!#f1optlockboxdelay #F1optEadDelay

@USCIS @EVerify Please approve OPT WORK AUTHORIZATION for F1 students. It's is only a 12 months Authorization for international students which is part of us education. #optdelay

@USCIS Please adjudicate F1 OPT cases soon! So many Nov & Dec cases still pending. While Covid delays are understandable, we hope @USCIS empathizes with our careers too, given the times! While TX cases are picking up (good), AZ cases are slowing down! #f1optlockboxdelay #F1optEadDelay

@USCIS @DHSgov Please approve F1 OPT for international students soon, we are waiting for over 4 months with practical training offers in hand. We are unable to even apply or renew driver's license! #f1optlockboxdelay #F1optEadDelay

@USCIS @EVerify International students gain through top-class education, but they also contributed $45 Billion to the US economy. @USCIS, please save F1 OPT. Please provide some closure and treat us with dignity! #JUSTICE4OPT #F1optEadDelay #optdelay https://t.co/rQ1hYC6Zs6

@USCIS Please approve F1 OPT soon! Wait times of over 4 months for a 12-month program is unreasonable. While we understand that the pandemic has hit @USCIS (and us probably more), any initiative to help international students would be great. #f1optlockboxdelay #F1optEadDelay

@iamjohnoliver Could you please do a piece on the massive delays by @USCIS on F1 OPT front? International students are waiting for over 4 months for a 12-month visa! Several of us are graduate students with our work impacting US economy positively. #F1optEadDelay #f1optlockboxdelay
