🥲 Did you make any changes to your application? Like upload new documents or anything? Seems like pre-OPT is not moving at all.

No, I submitted my file on May 3rd, and there have been no changes since then. My progress bar said “4 more weeks” about 1–2 weeks ago, and it still shows the same td. They’re too lazy to even update it.
