Students on post-completion OPT may have up to 90 days of unemployment. The 90 days start counting from your approved OPT/EAD start date (not the recommended start date nor the program end date on your I-20) and are cumulative. If you accumulate 90 days or more of unemployment, you are in violation of your F-1 status.

Are you serious about Boise is a good place to raise a family? Look at the housing price now dude, if you divide the median housing price by median income, Boise ranked No.11 in US cities, the top 10s are all big cities you can name, I didn't even know Boise before I came here.

It's fine for those old folks who bought a house for 100k ten years ago. For a newcomer, you deserve a better place.

I chose Micron because I thought Boise is good and safe place to raise a family. Intel was better in term of money. VA and NJ offered me relatively less. I realized now I made a mistake choosing Micron. Verbally they offered me 9 week severance packages. I hope I get something soon. I never neither join any semiconductor company nor encourage other.
