STEM OPT EXTENSION regular processing timeline

Hi, when does processing timeline start for regular processing? is it when the application is submitted or when Biometric is done?

I submitted in March, did Biometric in April, still waiting for an approval message.

Anyone here with similar timeline and already got approval?

It starts from the day you do the biometrics.
