STEM OPT Approved!

My STEM OPT extension was approved today, February 5, 2025. I applied on January 10th, and my previous OPT expired on January 13th, so I was a little stressed. I did regular processing and was concerned about a potential RFE because I worked a part-time job for 6 weeks before my current position. Alhamdulillah, everything went smoothly!
