  7. Editor’s note

    How this list is ranked

    These employers are ranked by how many roles open to OPT candidates they have live on Migrate Mate right now. OPT is your own work authorization rather than something the employer files, so the practical question is whether the role fits your field of study and whether the team has hired people on OPT before.

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.

OPT Employers for Financial Analysts: Frequently Asked Questions

Which companies sponsor the most OPT visas for Financial Analysts?

Amazon.com has the most, with 83 live OPT jobs on Migrate Mate, followed by JPMorganChase (19) and Fifth Third Bank (2). Across the 10 companies on this list, Migrate Mate is tracking 131 live OPT jobs, updated daily.

Who is eligible for OPT?

F-1 students are eligible for OPT if they are currently enrolled in or have recently completed a degree program at a SEVP-certified school, and the work they plan to do is directly related to their field of study. Students apply through their Designated School Official and file Form I-765 with USCIS. OPT authorization lasts 12 months, with a 24-month STEM extension available to qualifying graduates.

Do financial analysts qualify for F-1 OPT as a specialty occupation?

Yes. Financial analysts 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?

To work as a Financial Analyst on OPT, accept a job offer from an employer whose role relates to your field of study, then work with your Designated School Official to request an updated Form I-20 recommending OPT. You file Form I-765 with USCIS to receive your Employment Authorization Document before your start date. The employer does not file anything, OPT is student-initiated authorization, not an employer-filed process.
