The US Department of Homeland Security (DHS) provides clarification on stay timelines for certain international students in the United States under the “duration of status” (D/S) category. NDTV reports that DHS states students who are already in the US under D/S on September 15 may continue to remain in the country until the end of their authorized period as specified on their documentation. Specifically, DHS says these students can stay until the programme completion date listed on their Form I-20. The guidance also includes students who may have approved Optional Practical Training (OPT), stating they may remain until the end of their approved OPT period. The reports frame this as advice related to the effective date and applicable status for F-1 and J-1 students, emphasizing that the relevant end date is determined either by the Form I-20 programme completion date or by the conclusion of authorized optional practical training, whichever applies.
