How OPT works
OPT is work authorization for F-1 students, not an employer-sponsored visa. The student applies through their school's international office (the DSO) and USCIS with Form I-765; the employer files nothing. The role must relate to the student's field of study. OPT gives up to 12 months of work authorization, with a 24-month STEM extension for eligible degrees.

Which companies sponsor the most OPT visas for Accountants?
Jobot has the most, with 108 live OPT jobs on Migrate Mate, followed by Amazon.com (22) and JPMorganChase (16). Across the 10 companies on this list, Migrate Mate is tracking 175 live OPT jobs, updated daily.
Who is eligible for OPT?
F-1 students who have been enrolled full-time for at least one academic year at a U.S. Student and Exchange Visitor Program-authorized school are eligible for OPT. Authorization covers 12 months of work in a role directly related to the student's field of study. Students apply through their Designated School Official (DSO) and submit Form I-765 to USCIS before the employment start date.
Do accountants qualify for F-1 OPT as a specialty occupation?
Yes. Accountants typically hold a bachelor's degree in a specific field, which is exactly the specialty-occupation standard F-1 OPT is built around. What matters is that the employer classifies the role under a matching occupation code and that your degree lines up with it.
How do I get OPT through a top employer?
An employer does not file anything to hire an OPT student. The student initiates the process by requesting a DSO recommendation from their school's international student office, then filing Form I-765 with USCIS to receive an Employment Authorization Document. Once the EAD arrives and the authorized start date is reached, the student can begin working in a role that relates to their field of study. The employer simply confirms the role aligns with that field and hires the student directly.
