Hey,
I’m on Opt visa currently and have to file for my Stem extension before next month. I have got an offer from an employer and about to join them in one week. My EAD card got lost recently unfortunately, will I still be able to join the company? What are the workarounds as I don’t have much time left on my Opt visa and have to file for my stem before next month.

Thank you for the leads and referrals. Stay safe, Stay Blessed.
