Heads up to November filers, you can file a service request over the phone when you have passed the 75 day mark for the EAD, what I've seen in our October group some will get fast approvals on AP/EAD card, hindsight some of us filed service requests at the 90 day mark or later. When the request was made approval were within 2 days. So those of you that don't get early approvals watch your receipt date and call after 75 days, it will force them to look at you EAD. Good luck

Thank you! Good to know!

So if we don't hear anything by the 26th, I can call on the 27th. I hope we don't have to wait that long though, this is stressful enough... plus, trying to figure out how to file taxes this year. My head may explode. :\

Just letting everyone know because a lot of us could have got approvals earlier, just passing it on, not everyone in the group will get early approvals. There's no use in waiting when you can call at 75 days and rattle their chain.
