The House v. NCAA settlement creates a new system for direct university payments to athletes, but it does not solve the existing legal complexities for international student-athletes, meaning they cannot generally get paid through this revenue-sharing model without jeopardizing their visa status. Here's why:F-1 Visa Restrictions on Employment:Most international student-athletes in the U.S. are here on F-1 student visas. These visas are issued specifically for academic purposes and come with strict limitations on employment.Generally, F-1 visa holders are not allowed to engage in off-campus employment unless it's directly related to their degree and/or career development (e.g., Curricular Practical Training - CPT, or Optional Practical Training - OPT), and often requires specific authorization and time limits.The Problem: Direct payments from a university, even if framed as "NIL revenue sharing," are highly likely to be interpreted by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) as "active income" or a form of employment. This directly violates the terms of an F-1 visa. Risk of Visa Violation and Deportation:If an international student-athlete accepts direct payments from their university under the House settlement, they risk violating their visa status.Consequences of such a violation can be severe, including the termination of their F-1 visa, forced departure from the U.S. within a short period, or even potential deportation and bans on future re-entry. Lack of Federal Guidance:Despite the significant changes brought by NIL and now the House settlement, there has been no clear, explicit guidance from federal immigration authorities (USCIS or Department of Homeland Security) on how these new forms of athlete compensation apply to F-1 visa holders.Without such guidance, universities are in a difficult position. Many immigration attorneys and university international student offices strongly advise international student-athletes not to accept direct payments from their schools due to the immense risk to their immigration status.Limited Workarounds (Pre-Settlement, Still Applicable):Prior to the House settlement, for NIL deals, the limited "workarounds" for international student-athletes involved:Passive Income: Receiving compensation that doesn't involve "work" performed in the U.S. (e.g., a one-time royalty for a group licensing deal on apparel).Services Performed Abroad: Structuring NIL deals so that any "work" (e.g., social media posts, appearances) is performed while the athlete is outside the U.S. (e.g., during summer break in their home country) and payments are made to an international bank account.These workarounds were already complex and limited. The direct university payments, however, are explicitly tied to their participation for the university within the U.S., making these workarounds largely inapplicable.In essence, while the House settlement allows U.S. student-athletes to receive direct payments from their universities, international student-athletes are caught in a legal limbo due to federal immigration laws. Unless there is a specific legislative fix from Congress, or clear interpretive guidance from USCIS that carves out an exception for this type of compensation, international players cannot directly benefit from the revenue-sharing model without putting their visa status, and thus their ability to remain in the U.S. and compete, at extreme risk.This creates a significant disparity and a competitive challenge, particularly for sports with a high percentage of international athletes (e.g., track and field, tennis, swimming, soccer, basketball).Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!GametimeToday's episode is brought to you by Gametime.
