Help please! Visiting parents back home (Looking for a second opinion)
Hi All! I am currently on STEM opt (expiring 2023) and I haven't been back home (india) for 2 years. If I go this summer, I'd have to get my F-1 renewed on OPT (risky) plus I'm not too sure about the covid + flights status. My company is fine with me taking 3 weeks off plus 3 weeks wfh while I wait for things to sort themselves out. I'm extremely extremely double minded right now about whether or not I should go. I've extreme anxiety and I get paranoid thinking about my F-1 renewal getting denied (I didn't qualify for dropbox for some reason) and my career in the US being over before even starting. My question is: Should I wait 1-2 years or should I go this summer? Btw: flights are already booked for July 20th and visa appointment is also booked. But I still want a second opinion since maybe you guys have had to make similar decisions in the past. Thank you so much you all, looking forward to hearing your take on this. I'd be extremely grateful.

Also, please check if you are eligible to travel back. I highly doubt.
