Important Update:

Earlier today, December 15, 2015, a USCIS representative contacted AILA to clarify that no decision has yet been made that STEM optional practical training (OPT) employment authorization documents (EADs) will remain valid after February 12, 2016. The USCIS has now clarified that this question is still under review. As soon as the USCIS provides a definitive answer, an update will be posted on MurthyDotCom.

现在的情况是,由于final rule后60天后新政策才生效,所以2/12/2016和新政策生效之间有个gap,让现在opt extension的同学可能无法工作。
唯一的希望在于uscis现在对于现有STEM EAD卡在2/12/2016后是否继续有效是未做出决定,而不是一定否定(是否表示他们有决定权?),所以还是不要太悲观。
