Internship after graduation on F1-OPT with valid EAD

Hello , I recently got a 10 week paid internship offer(40hrs/week) from good tech company after tirelessly applying for jobs since my graduation in May 2021.

I am not sure how to react to it as the start date is in January 2022 and it ends on 1st April, which is more than 90 days away from my OPT end date and Stem extension application requirement, so i cant apply for extension while I’m working for them.

The company said they will offer me a FTE if i complete the internship successfully, and will let me know a week before April 1.

As I am an international student in F1 status, I’m worried about not having a job if my internship doesn’t convert to a FTE role, since for extension you need a paid gig, i cant even get a volunteering position for it.

I am a bit confused on this situation. Can anybody give me some advice. Currently I have been volunteering as a research assistant, so I don’t get counted for unemployment days.

TIA!

N-400 form {"data":null,"error":{"developerMessage":null,"userMessage":null}} message

A few questions: I filed my N400 naturalization on March 23, 2020. Nearly one year later on Feb 2021 they sent me a notice that they'll reuse my biometrics from my green card application, but they won't refund the biometric fee! At the same time April 2021 showed up on my account as the expected completion date. Last week, the status was "17 days". Today the estimated time of completion has disappeared!!! Any idea what that means? More importantly - When I click on "View PDF" link under "N-400 Application for Naturalization", to see my actual N-400 form, I get " {"data":null,"error":{"developerMessage":null,"userMessage":null}} " message! The form is also missing under "Documents -> Your Uploads" tab! So, it appears that my N400 form is missing! What does that all mean, considering that it's impossible to file without N400 form! Finally, under profile, My name is incorrectly sp...

NVC Case FE Review note

Hi everyone, my family and I are under the F3 category and we just received a notice from NVC that our documents have been approved and that we are Documentarily Qualified. My only concern is this message that we received today in addition to the acceptance: ​ " [Name of petitioner] does not meet the minimum income requirement to sponsor the intending immigrants for this case. The consular officer will make a decision regarding this requirement at the time of the interview. For more information, please visit https://www.uscis.gov/i-864p . To avoid delays, an additional Affidavit of Support Form I-864 for a joint sponsor may be submitted." ​ We already have a petitioner and a household sponsor (the household sponsor's income is above the required level), but still unsure why we received this. Has anyone else received this message? All of our documents say "Approved" on NVC. Does this mean we have to find another sponsor? Can we show the consular officer our ...
