The US Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has announced that a new unit will be launched by United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to monitor the Optical Practical Training (OPT) work permit scheme. The unit will focus on making sure compliance is met in terms of personnel, wages, hours and salaries.
The DHS said: “The unit will support ICE, which is currently unable to evaluate the impact OPT has had on US workers and foreign students who have obtained work authorisation.”
The OPT US immigration program recently escaped abolition after a federal judge rule against a motion filed by the tech union, which claimed that the system was ‘unfair to domestic employees.’
