International Student Session – Work Visas Made Easy: Practical Answers to Work Visas in the U.S. 

Time

Thursday, October 17 2024 from 5:30pm to 7:30pm

Location

Gerdin Business Building, Stark Hall, Room #1148

Graduate Business Career Services and ISSO will host a seminar on work visas for international students who wish to stay and work in the United States after graduation. The presenters are David Gluckman and Jonathan Moore, experienced immigration attorneys from Richmond, VA, who represent companies all over the U.S., processing work visas and green cards for international employees.

Topics they will discuss include Optional Practical Training, STEM extensions, H-1B visas (including the upcoming electronic registration process), and other common work-visa options used by U.S. employers to hire international grads.  They will also discuss issues regarding permanent-resident green cards for those who may qualify. There will be time for one-on-one questions and answers following the session.

For those unable to attend the event in-person, ISSO will send out a video recording of the event in the following weeks. If you have any questions, please contact Tabatha Carney at tkcarney@iastate.edu.
