    To qualify as a STEM OPT employer, the following must be met:

    1. First, you must be enrolled in E-Verify (the online identity verification program) operated by USCIS.

    2. The company must submit Form I-983 (the STEM OPT training plan) to the school.

    Once the OPT application is complete, finally, keep in mind that the OPT student must be paid for at least 20 hours of work per week during STEM OPT in order to maintain status.
