I never realized I would be getting so many messages on how I expedited my EAD, so I decided to just start this thread. I did pretty much the same thing alot of other users that I've read about expediting EAD on this site did.. I went to this website http://www.house.gov/ - and just typed in my zip code and it shows who my local congressman is and then I contacted him. I didn't even bother trying to expedite it over the phone through USCIS because they seem to just flat out deny you that way.. anyways I called and they will ask you to sign a privacy release form. I went into the office and spoke with the congressman about my situation and signed the privacy release. I think it helps to do things in person where they can put a face to the name. I believe you need to have some kind of compelling reason for them to expedite such as( but not limited to ) - a job offer or an emergency of some sort like extreme financial loss or something and be able to provide substantial proof. I think it helped that I wrote a letter explaining my situation along with the proof I provided as well. I have a medical situation that warrants urgent attention and my husband does not yet qualify for insurance from his job, and so I applied based on that.
