STEM OPT EXTENSION

Hey everyone! Quick question regarding STEM OPT (I-765) processing timelines.

My application was received on May 1st (receipt code IOE...), and status updated to 'USCIS Is Currently Processing The Case' on May 26th. It's been pending since then with no new updates.

For those who filed around late April or early May this year, have you received your approvals or EAD cards yet? How long did yours take after reaching the 'Currently Processing' stage?

Trying to decide whether to upgrade to Premium Processing or just continue relying on the 180-day extension while waiting for regular processing.

Any insights or recent experiences would be appreciated!"
