回复:请教8老师,皮匠老师,以及各位老师,关于OPT 调整为绿卡的问题。先谢谢了。

我是婚姻绿卡,应该下个月拿到临时绿卡,但是我现在身份为OPT (直到2013年过期,但是我还没更新,应该这个月RENEW)。

如果我拿到绿卡后,是否应该通知公司HR关于身份调整?

-Yes. You need to show them the green card to update your status with HR.

如果不通知他们,会不会有漏税的嫌疑?

-Your income tax has nothing to do with your employer. Even if you do not report your green card status to your employer, you still need to pay the income tax to IRS and your state based on resident tax from the date you get the GC, not non-resident tax anymore. If you don't, your GC will be invalid automatically.

(因为OPT只需要交FERDERAL TAXES) 如果不通知会有什么后果?

-It is required by law and not hurt to you report your green card to the employer, so why do you worry about that?

我能否用OPT直到过期日2013?

-Your F1/OPT automatically is invalid after you get the green card.

还是必须通知HR?

-Yes if you get the GC.

我应该renew OPT 么?

-No. Even if you do not get the GC yet, USCIS will not approve your OPT extension because you have immigration intent (filing I-485).
