Hi - I will be travelling to India on OPT which is set to expire on Sept 25th. I will be back on Sept 14th. As of now, I hold a volunteer position with my department at my university and have another offer which I will be starting in Sept when I come back. I will be applying for a STEM extension before I leave, but I am pretty sure I wouldn't have received my card before re-entering the country. My question is, will the offer letter and maybe a receipt from USCIS (for the extension) be sufficient for re-entry? could you please advise on any other documents that I might need to have in hand?

My opt expiring on July 29th and I reentered on July 22nd with the extension recipt.. In immigration they took me inside and re interviewed asking wht did I study and where did I work currently.. they checked the current Ead card and the recipt for extension and i20s..
