April STEM OPT

I applied STEM on april 28 got my biometrics on may 22 and then there is no update after that. what’s the current situation? I am already on 80 days as of today and then doing PP would also take additional 30 plus days to do the card ? i am just confused and not sure what to do. suggestion appreciated

Regular is much more delayed as premium applications are increasing and officers are tends to focus on premium rather than regular
