F1 visa stamping while on OPT (working full time)

Actually this is not question but some information about my case.

I was on F1 visa and working full time on OPT. My F1 stamp in passport was expired but my OPT status (EAD card) is valid.

I recently travled to India for personal reason and while coming back I have to apply for F1 visa while on OPT. As I was applying for F1 with same university and my F1 was expired recently I applied through DROP BOX facility (no interview).

I received my visa in few days without any interview.

Thanks

Cool, have you been back to US? I heard about that it’s not easy to get a new F1 vias from ambssy of your country during OPT period. Are you planning to apply for H1B ?
