My OPT(I-765) application rejected by USCIS on Feb 21st due to exceeding 30 days from recommendation date. DSO provided wrong recommendation date in email while she entered earlier date in SEVIS record. I got letter from DSO accepting fault but I'm confused about filing motion to appeal. Need clarification on following:
1. Can I file motion to appeal and F1 status reinstatement in parallel?
2. Can I file motion to appeal and get new I-20 from current institution in parallel?
3. If I file motion to appeal, would my unlawful stay be justified?
4. Would my unlawful stay (20+ days) cause issue if I don't file motion and leave to India and want to comeback on new I-20?
