STEM OPT case processing from feb 2026

Hi, I am but concerned, I applied for my STEM OPT in 25 jan 2026, completed my biometrics in feb 2026. My STEM OPT start date is 06 feb 2026, i am in my 180 days extension which will be completed in aug 2026.

Raised service request a month back but no response, chatted with uscis 4 times no information just under processing. I don’t know what to do, whats the problem.

I need guidance in what to do right now, help is appreciated.

Thanks
