Hi all,

I worked on cpt & opt on my F1 status and my employer sent me 1099-Misc as well as a W2 form.I worked on 1099-Misc for a month and would it be a violation of the F1 status if I work on cpt & opt as an independent Contractor.If it is please advice me what should be done

Thanks in advance

Technically, it IS a violation, but it is the employer's violation, NOT yours.

File Form 1040NR with a Schedule C to document the Form 1099 income, and do not worry about it.
