I am F1 student (graduate) and recently I have accepted fulltime postion on Campus ( 40hrs/week). It is regular fulltime job and I was selected through Interview process.

My ISA officer suggested that I can work 40 hrs on campus ( We are allowed 20 hr on Campus as student + 20 hr on CPT = Total 40 hr, which makes sense)  but still sometimes I feel I might be doing wrong. However my work is very closely related with the thesis I am working on and my academic advisor his given me all his support.

My first question is:
* As F1 student can I accept full time postion?
* Can we work 40hrs on campus with 20 hrs CPT for additional 20hrs ?

I am planning to go Nepal this summer. Will they question me/create problem at port of entry?

It would be great if you guys can share your ideas or is there any way I can get consulting from lawyer ?

Thanks
