The 90 days for the EAD is different from your AOD timeframe, As for the EAD Expedite, you would need a strong reason for requesting the expedite.

The 90 day guideline stopped in 2017.  It depends on the office processing and the reason for the AOS, but you can get the rough estimate either on the Immigration Timelines page of this website, or you could check the USCIS estimates (https://egov.uscis.gov/processing-times/home)

 

According to VisaJourney they are currently processing EADs with a NOA1 date of Sept 24th.

Hey, so it is taking on average 5 months to get your EAD. In some cases the greencard arrives first. The 3 months period was a long time ago. Now the process is backlogged. Expedite is just in case you have a strong case. I have heard people using congressman to help with expedites. But I also heard that they deny requests to expedite  in most cases.
