Applied for a green card in May and OPT F-1 status expiring in August

Hello,

In May I applied for a green card while I was still on a student F-1 visa status which will expire in mid August. The school's international students center told me that

"From when you initiate your green card application status, you have 10 days to report to us the change of status so that we can properly close out your SEVIS record. You cannot be in the U.S. under two immigration statuses."

I didn't report it within 10 days and still haven't yet..

I have two questions to clarify:

1) When should I or can I end my F-1 status (and how)

2) What will be my immigration status in the U.S. once my F-1 status ends, but I haven't been approved for the green card yet.

Thanks a lot

My only concern is this message that we received today in addition to the acceptance: ā€‹ " [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." ā€‹ 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 ...
