志愿者和unpaid intern 是有区别的知道吗？
Volunteering and Unpaid Internships for F-1 and J-1 Students Prior to Graduation
There is a difference between volunteering and engaging in an unpaid internship.
Volunteering refers to donating time with an organization whose primary purpose is charitable or humanitarian in nature, without remuneration or any other type of compensation. So for example, it would be OK to tutor in East Palo, or donate time with the American Red Cross. F-1 students are free to engage in volunteer work as long as it meets the above criteria.
Unpaid internships, on the other hand, do not usually qualify as “volunteer” work. Internships, both paid and unpaid, are primarily offered by the private sector and related to the intern’s major field of study. The U.S. Department of Labor has guidelines for those seeking an unpaid internship.
Six criteria for an unpaid internship must be met:
The internship, even though it includes actual operation on the facilities of the employer, is similar to training which would be given in an educational environment;
The internship experience is for the benefit of the intern;
The intern does not displace regular employees, but works under close supervision of existing staff;
The employer that provides the training derives no immediate advantage from the activities of the intern; and on occasion its operations may actually be impeded;
The intern is not necessarily entitled to a job at the conclusion of the internship; and
The employer and the intern understand that the intern is not entitled to wages for the time spent in the internship/
Additional requirements apply to F-1 and J-1 students:
The internship has to be in the declared major field of study.
The internship cannot be for more than 20 hours a week during term time (those students with a 50% assistantship will not be eligible for the internship opportunity).
Any remuneration or any other type of compensation at all requires F-1 students to receive either CPT or OPT work authorization and J-1 students must apply for Academic Training.
F-1 students cannot be retroactively remunerated or in any way compensated for work done in an unpaid internship if they subsequently obtain work authorization.
We recommend that if you are engaging in an unpaid internship off -campus that you consider using Curricular Practical Training, Pre-Completion Optional Practical Training, or Academic Training (J-1 students).
Please ensure that your prospective supervisor is aware of these federal regulations and that you have assurances (preferably written) to that effect before you accept the position. We also recommend that F-1 students who do engage in unpaid internships have a letter from their academic advisor confirming that the internship is in the major field of study, and a letter from the employer confirming that there was no remuneration or any other type of compensation provided in any form during the (aforementioned) dates the student was participating in the internship.
Bechtel International Center recommends that F-1 and J-1 students seeking to engage in an unpaid internship attend one of the employment sessions to discuss the appropriateness, consequences and responsibilities of this internship. Students may also contact internationalstudents@stanford.edu with specific questions relating to unpaid internships. |
