PGWP Approved but Student Visa Valid Until Dec 2025 – Need TRV Advice for Travel

Hey everyone,

I just got my Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) approved yesterday (March 14th), but my student visa (S-1 category) is still valid until December 2025. I'm planning a trip to India for about a month before December 2025.

Given my situation, should I apply for a Temporary Resident Visa (TRV) now in case I decide to travel? I understand that after December 2025, I'll need to apply for a new TRV regardless. Looking for some guidance on what would be the best approach here. Thanks in advance for your help!
