We the people ask the federal government to Change an existing Administration policy:

Students on F1 visa program should be allowed to work off-campus from 1st semester itself

Created by S.B. on June 01, 2016

Students with F1 status should be allowed to gain work experience by working off campus while completing their studies from 1st semester itself. Students should qualify to work off campus without a work permit. Study permit will allow students to:
work up to 20 hours per week during regular academic sessions and
work full-time during scheduled breaks, such as the winter and summer holidays or spring break.
Canada already has given these right to student since June 1, 2014. United States of America being one of the greatest nations should implement these rules as well.
To qualify student must have a valid study permit, be a full time students, and be studying.
Because working for 20 hours wont affect students studies rather it will help them explore the world with full of experiences.
