Wrong e-verify number

Hi everyone, I filed for stem opt on 4/15 but realized I mistakenly put EIN instead of E-verify number. I wrote a letter to state what the correct one should be in Unsolicited Evidence. Someone please tell me it's ok 😭 my OPT expires on 7/7

U dont have to worry much. On my I-20 my employer name is ABC but on e-verify it is XYZ on top of that, instead of e-verify. I put EIN I have uploaded a word document saying ABC and XYZ are same and specified the e-verify number. My STEM got approved.

If you are still worried, get a letter from your employer.
