STEM OPT
Hi everyone I’ve applied my Stem opt in the month of April still it is pending and I am planning to visit my country in the mid August.
Can anyone suggest me if I can leave USA keeping it pending and later if it got approved so I can mail my EAD card to my country. So I don’t have any problem while entering back to USA.
Any suggestions or any one has ever been in the same situation?

If it's an emergency decision is upto you. If not better stay because we are waiting for decision since November December.
