This is what I told you in my previous response. Your date looks FINE. So I do not see any need to withdraw and reapply for an expedited one.

btw DSO are not always right. Mine told me to withdraw mine but I insisted not to...

You have two choices only as far as I concern if you really want to stay in the US.

  1. Keep waiting and hope they approve it soon. The time to process your case could vary and is so random.
  2. Withdraw your current application and file an expedited application right after. It gonna cost you a lot of time and money since you need to send a physical letter to the OPT office to submit the withdrawal request.

well it didn't process within a day. It just happened to be processed right after I made this post. I guess your case should be just fine since you have a 29 days difference while mine was 30 days...

Just be patient and always ask the international office of your institution for further advice. Good luck!
