Expired OPT EAD + pending STEM extension - any risk flying domestic?
Hey everyone, hoping to get some clarity on my situation:
- My initial 12-month OPT EAD expired in Feb, and I filed my STEM OPT extension before my OPT expired
- I have my I-797 receipt notice confirming the 180-day automatic extension
My main concern: With the current situation at airports, is there any real risk to someone in my situation during domestic travel?
Any recent experiences or advice from people who are in a similar situation? Thanks in advance for any clarity on this!
