True but since I am not expediting EAD I still have 2+ months to go before I get it, so I rather try. I have been doing a lot of reading and as soon as USCIS accept I-485 application it gives legal status. In Texas a pending I-485 (797c letter of acceptance) is a valid document to prove lawfull status, a requirement to get a drivers license. 

and you already have your SSN?

You should be good to go with your I-485 NOA, SSN and whatever other documents you need. Did you say you applied with a different name than is written on your SS card? If so, you might run into some problem but my DMV overcame that hurdle and issued me a license using my maiden name. I am thinking you should be okay. Good luck!

Also, my license was issued for one year.

I requested the Expedite on my EAD on Monday and Tuesday night received an email confirming it. But case hasn't changed in USCIS website and I haven't gotten any letter on the mail or anything.

 

Usually how long after request expedite you get the letter requesting the evidence?

Read the email again. It should not just be a confirmation email but should provide you instructions on how to fax evidence. Look about 2 paragraphs up from the bottom. It should say something like: The status of this service request is:

Upon receipt of your request for expeditious handling, your case was reviewed and a determination was made that we need additional information to make a decision regarding your request. Please fax proof of your extreme emergent need or severe financial loss to the following number: 816-###-####, Attn: LA####, Div. # Team #. All foreign language documents must be accompanied by a full English translation. Please include this notice with your fax.

Nope, I read all emails with extreme detail. Mine only says "The status of this service request is:

Your case is currently under review.  You should receive a decision or notice of other action shortly."
 

That is all that says

Yikes. What was the reason you gave for an expedite? I have probably requested an expedite 4 times and received an email 3 times with request for evidence within 24 hours. Sorry I'm no help

Same as everybody else. Financial loss. Told them we had a few unexpected expenses that really drained our savings and that I needed to start working ASAP.

No, I used the same name that I used on my adjustment of status

EAD expedites are usually "handled" within 1-2 days max. They send you a letter in the mail requesting evidence, which you send and then after another 4-5 days they usually approve if evidence is sufficient.

If they approve the case status changes to "Card in production" or "Case was accepted".

To everyone who saw their status change to "Case ready to be processed for an interview", what date did you see on that status and after how many days(from that date) did you see the status update?

Our NOA1 date was May 18 and the status was updated to ready to be scheduled for interview on June 15, but we didn't see it for a few days.

Well then I guess I should get worried because Monday is going to be a week since I requested it :S
