HI am not sure if i can help you too much. are you a student returing to the US? and if your school wont sign the I-20 the above wont help you cause you would need the signed I-20 for the Visa. by the way, you dont have to tell them where the pargraph came from, but make them awair of the...

By the way, I learned that the reason why things are so slow is because the offices just changed computer services. What sucks is that I start work next week and have yet to hear from them, but what of benefit to future OPT-ers is that you will one day be able to expedite your OPT (for the fun...
