GEORGE TOWN: The depreciation of the ringgit is an acceptable reason for international students in the United States to apply for permission to work outside the campus.

A father, who wanted to be known only as Ragu, said his son studying at a US university now works part-time at a petrol station for his daily expenses.

According to the USCIS website, “substantial fluctuations in the value of currency or exchange rate” are acceptable grounds for hardship. “I still pay his tuition fees, and I must admit that with the depreciating ringgit, things can get pretty hard but luckily, this is my son’s final year,” said the 59-year-old businessman yesterday.As for his other son, Ragu plans to send him to study abroad in a less costly location, such as Singapore.
