  • Yes, F-1 visa holders in the USA are allowed to work part-time on and off campus for 20 hours a week. While the students work part-time in the US, they also have to maintain their attendance and avoid exceeding the already set 20 hours a week for work. Exceptions can be made for US student visa holders if their universities are closed for holidays, they are permitted to work for up to 40 hours a week. This rule is only when there are official holidays going on or when the univeristies are closed for summer break.
