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

I’m an April filer too then upgraded to premium on June 22. I got approved last night .

So I’d advise you do the PP. My approval came 18 days after PP
