OPT STEM Extention

Hi guys,

I have a question about the requirements for OPT STEM Extention. The initial OPT will expire this June. I’m working on the Extention application that will last for the next 24 months - until June 2023. Although, my passport expires in one year - July 2022. Does anyone know if the fact that the passport expiration date is sooner than OPT extension could be a reason to reject my application? Thank you in advance!

Best,
Olga
