Track your OPT window and deadlines

Written by Hiring Fleet

Once you enter your program and employment dates, your dashboard timeline lays out the OPT milestones ahead of you: when your application window opens, your earliest and latest start dates, and how much of the 90-day unemployment allowance you have used.

Keeping it accurate

  • Update your dates in the Job Search Profile whenever something changes; the timeline recomputes from what you enter.
  • The examples shown on our marketing pages use sample dates; your dashboard always reflects your own data.

Deadlines in the app are planning aids computed from the dates you provide. Your DSO is the authority on your specific case; confirm every filing date with them.
