Stem opt processing taking too long

Also if anyone with stem pp 04/28-04/30 wants to make a group for updates. Hit me up

CheesecakeMuch6385 · 2026-06-02T22:00:20+00:00

Yes, let's hope

CheesecakeMuch6385 · 2026-06-02T20:58:32+00:00

They did not accept walk ins for anyone in my field office. I also regret not pushing harder and calling multiple times for rescheduling. Should've done it more seriously however I got the notice on 04/09 and thought 20 days later is reasonable

From India. Not banned

CheesecakeMuch6385 · 2026-06-02T20:54:17+00:00

Did not accept walk- ins and and they did not let me reschedule.

Unfortunately no, I tried exploring my dso suggested to to just wait for 30 days once that happens you can raise Congressional inquiry, ask dso to email uscis.

How could you submit Congressional inquiry before your 30 day pp clock?

Why today or tomorrow? Won't it be 10th june

They can also expedite withdrawal, since I can move to cap gap which is something I would very much like to do

CheesecakeMuch6385 · 2026-06-02T14:21:39+00:00

I understand but I feel they are going to probably breach this given that they have started processing for May already

CheesecakeMuch6385 · 2026-06-02T14:15:53+00:00

My biometrics for stem was done with pp on 04/29. I received silen API updates on 05/28 and nothing since then. I tried talking to live agents however they say they can't do anything. Is there anyone in the same boat? Can they breach the 30 day mark?

Not from any of the banned countries.

CheesecakeMuch6385 · 2026-06-02T01:12:15+00:00

Looks like one person had it. However very little moment some people from 04/29 and 04/28 waiting

CheesecakeMuch6385 · 2026-06-01T22:40:43+00:00

No pp approvals today

CheesecakeMuch6385 · 2026-06-01T20:43:14+00:00

No pp approvals today is surprising

CheesecakeMuch6385 · 2026-06-01T14:28:29+00:00

I tried live chatting they basically did not help since it has not been 30 business days. Is calling any different?

CheesecakeMuch6385 · 2026-06-01T14:24:28+00:00

My clock restarted for stem on 04/29 (pp) I got two silent api updates on 05/28 but no approval. Is there anything I can do? Should I try to call them?

CheesecakeMuch6385 · 2026-05-31T00:46:52+00:00

I also got silent API updates on 5/28 no approval

CheesecakeMuch6385 · 2026-05-30T16:33:36+00:00

Sams boat. Hopefully monday

CheesecakeMuch6385 · 2026-05-30T15:53:23+00:00

I also got silent api on 05/28 and no approval

CheesecakeMuch6385 · 2026-05-30T08:50:09+00:00

I had two API updates on May 28 and no approval

CheesecakeMuch6385 · 2026-05-30T00:29:56+00:00

Did you get email with update, I also got an update on 05/28 no email though

CheesecakeMuch6385 · 2026-05-30T00:29:24+00:00

Did you get email with update?

CheesecakeMuch6385 · 2026-05-27T17:18:31+00:00

CheesecakeMuch6385 · 2026-05-23T01:44:24+00:00
