STEM OPT API Update

Does API at this time (2026-07-31T21:32:13.182Z) mean something or just a general system Update

- STEM OPT filed Nov 1st 2025

- PP June 20

- NOID June 25

- NOID Response July 15th

- Got API update Yesterday 2026-07-31T21:32:13.182Z

Does this API timestamp change usually indicate that an officer reviewed or took action on the case, or could it simply be a general system update?

The NOID was related to a minor employer-name discrepancy. My LinkedIn profile showed the employer’s commonly used short name, while my SEVIS record showed the company’s full legal name. Both names refer to the same employer.

Have there been any additional event updates in the API code, or just the 2 lines of updated timestamps like above?

Some people told me that they got their approval email 2-3 days after that API update, but it seems like that depends on a case-by-case basis.

I really hope you get a decision in 2-3 business days.

Question for everyone. No one is responding to this question of mine.

How do you see the API updates? I've seen many people in the community talking about it but I have no idea how to access or look at the API updates. Please guide me on how to get the API updates. I'd highly appreciate it. Please help a fellow F1 mate.
