Working STEM OPT until GC
Hello my pd is Aug 10, 2021. I still have 24 months STEM OPT left. Can I work with my STEM OPT until I get my GC or I have to work for employer with EB3 EAD since it does not say anywhere I have to work for sponsor after I get EB3 EAD? Please let me know if anyone is still working with STEM OPT EAD even after receiving EB3 EAD. Thank you!

RFE I-864
Hello,
I recently got a RFE for my medical and I-864.
My husband wasn’t working the whole time in the last 3 years because he was in and out the country because of family. So his last tax returns don’t show a lot.
He recently started working again and we’re living together with his brother. So if we put him as a household member they’re income together should be around $3,000 above the poverty guideline for a house hold of 3.
Do you think we’re good? Did anyone experience the same?

I was frustrated. Some weeks ago means that today i log in the Account and Case is taking longer than espected changed to 1 week, i dont know whats going on. Did someone experienced this one ?
About to fly Now From 🇪🇦 To The 🇺🇸.
18 Month:
Of GOD'S GOODNESS, GREATNESS AND FAITHFULNESS:
it's a done deal i had my passport with the immigrant Visa in it today...
from filing i130 through NVC to Medicals then to documents review at the Embassy and lastly the interview, i simply was relaxed, because i know i am doing the right thing with the right documents and with enough patience, God made everything beautiful for me at His own time and His will.
It take patience to move mountains.
God is faithful and always..
I pray that everyone in this journey should build the spirit of patience, no matter how long it may take, you will definitely get what you want.
Wishing you all the best of miracles that happens everyday while you wait patiently 💖.

Interview Scheduled
After 3 years and 10 months for my application, I finally got an update that an interview has been scheduled.
I was expecting letter of approval, NVC processing before embassy visa schedule.
Right now am waiting for USCIS mail regarding the interview.
Has anyone gotten such message?
My wife lives in Nigeria and this type of interview schedule is common with couples who are already living in the US
