Can I apply for my F2 dependent visa while my husband's STEM OPT extension is still pending?

I am currently on my F1 opt and it expires on Sept 3rd 2017. My husband's OPT expired on July 5th 2017 and he has applied for his STEM extension on April 21st 2017. We are still waiting for his STEM EAD card. Can I apply F2 dependent while his STEM extension is still pending or so I have to wait for his EAD card to come before I send my application?

Thanks!

Just wait till August 25th. Then you can apply for F-2 based on his STEM extension receipt. As long as USCIS receives your COS application before Sep 3rd you should be good.
