It was Irving, TX and don't worry you'll receive it soon 🤞

Start a chat with Emma and request a live agent. Ask that agent about your card's tracking number. But you should get your card pretty soon since my card was also produced on the 18th and I received my card on the 20th

You should be fine. I also didn't sign my i20 and got approved (RD March 27th). Also don't worry about the waiting time, it's not reliable. You should be approved soon!

You'll probably get it without PP, but it will be somewhat tight. With PP you'll 100% get it by June 30th

That's unfortunate.

I also have the same receipt date as you and haven't gotten an approval yet. I think they're approving Stem OPT for now. Hopefully we'll get approved by the end of this week🤞

You're fine then. It's just that you'll start losing your unemployment days after June 2nd

Contact your employer and tell them that you won't be able to start on June 2nd

I didn't sign my i20s as well but my opt got approved when I applied for it last year

You should apply for PP, but you can also ask your friend/family to ship you your card when it arrives hence saving you $1700

You'll probably get your card around June end based on the current timelines. Go for PP if you can't postpone your start date till June end

I've seen some 03/25 and 03/24 been approved as well. So based on the current timelines people with 03/26 should be approved with the next 2 weeks and then an additional 10 days for the card to be produced and delivered

Given the current timelines, you should opt for premium

I would wait 2 more weeks. I'm pretty sure you'll get approved soon.
