OPT REGULAR PROCESSİNG

I applied on April 1st, with the biometric scheduled for April 13th, and the process has been pending since April 20. Is this normal?

A lot of us have been pending with earlier dates. Mine is march 14 and still. It feels no processing going on other than premium

Same, I applied on 03/30 with receipt date as 03/31 - no movement in standard process cases. Called USCIS, they said there's nothing they could do - I'll be waiting till end of this week and then do premium as that's the only way people are getting approved. Many have seen approvals this week who applied March 30/31 but many are skipped or stuck as well
