Stem OPT

Hello, I have applied for stem OPT and the receipt date is Feb 3, 2024. I didn't go for premium filing because it's costly. It's been 3 months and I don't have any update on my case yet. Is there a general delay going on currently? Has anyone applied during Feb and already received an update on their case? #workvisa #stemopt #OPT #F1 #studentvisa

I heard the wait time is 4 months on average. You can always upgrade to a premium if there is an employer who cannot wait.

Thank you for your response. I don't have an employer issue, I can wait. It makes me a bit anxious though πŸ˜…. Also, I can see I can submit an inquiry after one more month. But wanted to get a general sense if students in general are experiencing this delay.
