RFE for STEM Extension

[karthikpvsfdc]

Hi

I was working for Company A in Feb 2016 and i submitted my STEM Extension (17 Months) by end of Feb 2016.
My OPT End date is 06/10/2016.
I received a RFE saying there is no signature in I-765 to submit again and i received all my documents back.
In RFE it says NOTICE DATE as 07 March 2016 and RECEIVED Date as 03 March 2016.
I moved to company B now and i still did not submit the RFE back and i am in process of submitting STEM extension (24 Months as there is no 17 Months STEM rule)
My query is
1. Am i eligible for 17 Month Extension?
2. How many days left to submit my RFE?
3. As 17 Months rule is vacated now, if i submit the RFE do i need to attach I-983 form?

But I-20 i sent to USCIS before STEM employer name was Company A.

Can i resend the the packet again by signing the I-765? (Which says Company A as my employer in STEM)
I have already updated the school that i moved to employer B and they added the employer in OPT Employer list, but not in STEM employer list.

Please advise on this as my employer is interested for 17 Months rather than 24 Months.

Thanks

1. Your RFE notice should state when the RFE was due. It’s usually 84 days but in your case, it could have been 30 days since they only needed a signature. Check your RFE notice.
2. Are you sure it was an RFE and not a rejection with instructions to resubmit? Then there is no deadline except you need to re-file before your OPT ends.
It’s difficult to answer your other question without knowing which happened, RFE or rejection. You might want to discuss with your DSO ASAP or an attorney.
