想问下OPT90天失业期是连续90天失业还是总共90天失业?

我是今年4/28毕业,OPT 5/11开始,然后在7月20号的时候挂在了老师下面做volunteer。

现在找到工作,但是工作要办export license control,不用太早去上班,就想着能不
能回国一趟。但因为90天已经用了差不多70天,不知道这个时候回国可不可以呢?如果
这个时候回国,我是重新有了90天的失业允许时间还是只有20天了呢?

我的F1 visa今年1月6号重新re-issue了,明年的1月3号才过期,是不是说如果在过期
日之前回美国就不用renew VISA?(因为我现在学生身份没了,如果再次进入美国是不
是需要带offer letter啥的?还是只要VISA没过期就可以)
我去问了下国际学生办公处的人,第一次是这么回复的:
Remember while you are on OPT you can only have 90 days total of unemployment. You are expected while on OPT to be here working in the U.S.


我argue说我回国也可以工作,第二次就这么回复:
Traveling outside the U.S. while on OPT counts as unemployment unless you are employed during an authorized leave, meaning you must get permissions from
your employer before you leave to work from home. I would get this in writing stating that you are still employed by your company, will be working from your home
country and they approve this leave of absence.
When you are employed, paid vacation days and holidays do not count against your unemployment.


理论上好像我不renew VISA的话,至少减少一个风险,唯一的风险就在入境了。


不知道大家对我的case如何看
