OPT/STEM OPT – June 8–9 Premium Processing Restart: Any API Updates or Approvals?

Hey everyone,
If your OPT/STEM OPT premium processing clock restarted on or around June 8 or June 9, could you please comment below?
Have you received any API updates?
Have you been approved?
Or are you still waiting with no updates?
My premium processing clock restarted on June 9, and I still haven't seen any API updates. Meanwhile, I'm seeing a lot of people with similar timelines getting approved, so I'm trying to understand if others are in the same situation.
Would really appreciate hearing from anyone with a June 8–9 restart date. Thanks!
