H1B First time - Admin Processing
Had my H1B interview at Hyd consulate on October 18, 2019

F1 -> CPT -> Pre-OPT -> OPT -> STEM OPT -> H1B COS on October 1st

Basic questions from a very friendly VO, he did not ask for any docs at all.

Oh xyz company. Where in abc State do you live ?
How long have you been working for them?
What's your salary?
Have you ever been out of status ? (to which i replied No)
Are you sure? (Yes, I am)
Okay, I don't think you were, we're going to have to manually change something. It might take an extra day or two. Everything else looks good ! Thanks.

FYI - I haven't submitted the final evaluation on my I-983, which i recently realized i should've done, so i'll be doing that soon. Could that be a reason ? I spoke to another person, who also is in the same situation but he does not have to submit his I-983 since he was not on his STEM OPT, so im kinda thinking it is a data issue.

Has anyone had a similar situation be resolved in a day or two before ? My flight back is early next week and I won't make it if my VO doesn't come through on his 1-2 day timeline.
