| "At any time, F-1 students need a visa stamped in their passport to
| be able to return to the USA. It's the same whether they're actively
| in school or on their OPT," Diya Mathews, partner and attorney at
| law firm Chugh, LLP, told Times of India. She added that though the
| students on OPT may be working and getting paid, they are
| technically still on F-1 student visa status.
|
| "OPT is just the work authorisation period towards the end of the F-
| 1 status after the coursework is completed. There is no separate
| visa status for OPT," she added. While most students applying for F-
| 1 visas in India are interviewed before they are granted a visa; due
| to the current visa processing backlogs in India some students are
| being granted interview waivers if they have had a prior US visa.
| "They can apply for a dropbox appointment which means they will
| likely be exempt from in-person visa interview," Mathews said.
