Need suggestions on travel to India when OPT is expiring & STEM-OPT is pending
Hi there,
I am currently on OPT & my current EAD is expiring on 15 July. I have applied for STEM extension and have received the i-797 notice. But the approval is still pending.
I want to go to India to attend my sister's marriage and come back on July 12. Is it advisable to do so?
I am a little skeptical because I will only have 1 working day left in my current OPT. Also, even if the I-797 notice mentions that my current work authorization is extended for another 180 days till my STEM-OPT is pending, I am wondering if this is enough to convince the immigration officer to enter to the US.
