So I have an OPT employment that needs to be reported to the SEVP. I have an offer letter with me and the position is valid OPT employment. The start date on the letter is 24th Dec and today is 28th. I only have 2 more days of unemployment left out of the maximum allowable 90 days (starting from Oct 1 2020, that would make 29th Dec 2020 my 90th day of unemployment)
My question is if I enter the details into the SEVP portal today and enter the start date as 24th Dec, does that stop counting unemployment days from 24th (the start date) or from today(when I enter it into the SEVP portal)? I'm really confused and need to know if I can still have more unemployment days in my buffer. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
