  • EAD Card Expiry Date Error (USCIS gave more months)

    Problem:
    I have done part-time pre-OPT for 2 months. So, according to that my one month from normal 12 months duration of OPT should be deducted.
    But, I have got post-OPT card with 12 months which is the normal duration instead of 11 months which should be the duration.

    What I did about the problem:
    1) I asked about this to my University and they said to contact USCIS and get it corrected and only then you can apply for 17 months OPT extension.
    2) I contacted USCIS, they placed a service request but response i got was that our records show your EAD card has been delivered.
    3) I contacted USCIS again and spoke to officer regarding this issue and that i got wrong response. The officer also placed service request and again the response i got was that your address has been updated in our records.
    4) Then I took Infopass appointment and met with the officer. She said I don't know much about OPT but if its not big issue then leave it. Else, you can send it back but there is no guarantee it will come back.

    Questions:
    Now, after this I don't know what to do.
    If I send it and it does not come back or gets stuck in processing. what happens then?
    If I don't send then what will be the consequence?
    If i apply for extension with a note about this, will USCIS handle this issue?

    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Thanks

        Hi mls,

        I am facing this exact problem right now. But USCIS has asked me to send my opt back for correction, so i sent it and it has been 30 days since they received my card, but i haven't received any update that my card has been received by them. It is so frustrating as no from USCIS is giving me any update either. Can i please know if you sent your card back for correction? if so, how long did it take for you to get any update from them, like a notification that they received your card.
        please reply it is very important. Thank you.
