Attention UConn Sponsored F-1 OPT/STEM Students:

UConn ISSS has received several reports from students on OPT and STEM OPT Extension that they are no longer able to access the SEVP Portal or that their employment information is not properly updated in the SEVP Portal.  Please understand that these problems are occurring at schools all over the U.S. and that this is a known technical issue with the SEVP Portal.

SEVP will be closing down the portal today to implement the fix and students should be able to login again and see their employment information by April 29.  In the meantime, ISSS can still access and update the SEVIS database with your employment information.

Be sure to continue submitting any employment updates to ISSS directly via the OPT Employment Update in the ISSS Portal.  Submit any personal address changes to ISSS via update your address in the ISSS Portal.

Continue to submit your address and/or employment updates to ISSS to ensure your data is properly updated in SEVIS.

Thank you,
UConn ISSS
