Going to India with OPT application filed

Graduating December 7 2018. Starting job Feb 18 2019. Going to India December 5 2018. Applied OPT at college on October 6 and gave my cousin's mailing address in SF. Got new i20 today. What do you suggest? Is it legally okay to go outside US? Suggestions and views much appreciated ๐Ÿ™‚

I'd recommend not to be outside USA after you graduate and before getting your ead. At least wait for the approval notice.

Donโ€™t travel until you get the ead?

In December, my room mate mailed me my EAD card. Ask any of your friend to keep checking mail box in your absence and they can mail you once you receive it.
