Hang in there! I filed my EAD on 11/19/2003 and got approval after RFE on 8/4/2004.
 
Go to the local office

If InfoPass is available in your area, make an appointment and attend to
local USCIS office.
Here is the URL to make appointment and check whether it is available in
your area.

Best of luck.

Is this somewhat different than calling the USCIS number and inquire about the status? I have never heard about infopass before, so do u mind explaining a little? Thanks.
 
I had applied EAD (Paper Filing) on Sep 10th 2004 and got it approved on Sep 23rd 2004. 13 days flat..... I have tears in my eyes looking at the speed at which the case was approved
Moral of the story: Dont do e-Filing, Paper filing is faster and convinient..

RFE was about I-94 and all pages of passport (although I have submitted all with initial application).
 
I got my EAD in 13 days too. It was paper filing. Applied on 8/17/2004 and got approved on 9/10/2004.
 
No, its a place to take appointments to your local BCIS office. you fall under the below case, so are eligible for an appointment. I just did some research for you, but I personally don't have any experience.

Go to https://infopass.uscis.gov/infopass.php for more info and select the below option

It has been more than 90 days since you filed an I-765 and you did not receive an Employment Authorization Card
 
If EAD is not issued by USCIS service center within 90 days, an applicant can obtain interim EAD at local district office.
90 day clock stops ticking when the service center issues RFE for initial evidence with reference to the underlying I-140.When the requested initial evidence is received by the service center, 90 day clock starts to run all over again. Previously suspended time does not count in counting new 90 days.
