I finally got my card in the mail yesterday and I was so happy that my green card journey has finally come to an end. Thank you to all for your input and information. They have been very helpful. Right now, I finally got my freedom. No more visa stamps and most importantly I can work now.

hi...it's been over 90 days since I applied for EAD and no approval yet, only 1 LUD for change of address.. any idea if they stopped giving EAD's?

No, they haven't. I recieved my EAD in less than 3 weeks, applied before new fee structure came in to effect (july end week, texas service center).
 
Wow, haes75, that was fast processing. I wish all cases were that fast. I do not understand why some cases take much longer than others (for example, I thought I-485's take at least 6 mo's, but it was 3 mo's for you). But nonetheless, congrats and good luck with the job search....

Now that you're a veteran, can you shed some light for me?
1, Where do you see these LUD's? (does it mean last update?)
2, After the FP, what can I expect as far as processing steps?

Thanks,
A.
