Master of orion ii trainer6/15/2023 ![]() CPT may only be used for internships and co-op experiences.Employment must be directly related to major and degree level.CPT is issued for a specific set of dates, for a specific employer, at a specific location. You must have a job offer to apply for CPT.If your CPT is extended, you must receive your updated CPT I-20 before continuing employment. Authorization is only valid once it is on your I-20. You cannot legally begin working until you have received your CPT I-20 and the start date has arrived. Starting your internship or co-op experience without an approved, correct CPT I-20 is a violation of your F-1 status.The ISSO will make determinations of CPT eligibility and will authorize CPT where the proposed training satisfies federal regulations and the UTD CPT program.į-1 students who apply for internships and are eligible for CPT authorization are providing implicit consent for ISSO to update their SEVIS record with the CPT employment. The primary purpose of F-1 status is study, not employment. CPT is a possible benefit of F-1 status, not an entitlement.
