I really took time out to reply to this thread because I learned how to expedite my EAD through the post of Jorgen about EAD renewal. Thanks!
I called USCIS'
1 800-number,
1 for english
1 case status
1 if you have a problem
1 if you have receipt #
-dial receipt number..
1 confirm receipt #
--- wait for info
3 if there's a problem in your case...
--- I was put on hold , asked to wait until a "live" officer answered
--- I informed the officer that I wanted to expedite my EAD. I was asked to give several personal info../receipt#s, etc
--- Officer read a script on how to expedite. I was asked to choose a reason from about 5 that she read.
--- I opted for #1 - financial loss, and # 4 - nonprofit org, impact to US . I explained about the financial loss part ( sole bread winner in the household, 2 kids, unemployed husband) and the impact to US part ( I am a math teacher in a minority school, hard to find a certified high school math teacher who wants to teach in a 90% minority school. If I were absent, about 70 kids would not be learning in one day or several days depending on the arrival of EAD. ). I requested the officer to read to me what she wrote in the remarks. It took a while because I also requested to expedite my younger son's EAD and AP . I chose financial loss for him as the main reason. He is a senior now and is applying for scholarship. The university asked for his legal status. When we presented his EAD(expired jan 3) and stamped AP (expires march 2012) we were told to get new ones because he is applying for fall 2012. So, without the new EAD/AP, my son doesn't it qualify for a scholarship, its a financial loss on his part too...that's it. I was given two reference numbers.
After I requested the expedite, I checked the online status almost every 3 hours (yes, can't wait for uscis' action). 36 hours after my request, I saw my EAD status as "Card Production". My kids' and my husband's EAD/AP were expedited too. The process works! Should the mail delivery system not fail, I expect to receive the EAD/AP from USCIS at most within the next two weeks. Thanks VISAjourney.com! I learned how to expedite my EAD from this site... truly appreciate the information posted here. I posted my experience to inform the other EAD applicants that the process works. It worked for my family.
