Based on the suggest letter, I sent letter to USCIS by over night service.
I sent the letter on 1/22/07,
Letter was delivered on 1/23/07,
EAD approved on 1/24/07,
On 1/25/07 my case stuatus changed, stating ordered for EAD production.
On 1/29/09 I received EAD in my mail box. New EAD is valid from 1/24/07 through 1/23/08.
My old EAD expired on 1/05/07, so I could not go to work. My I-485 was filed from Nebraska service center. Therefore I sent the letter to following address using UPS.
USCIS (
Attn: I-765 Unit, Expedite Request)
Nebraska Service Center
850 S Street
P.O. Box (87765)
Lincoln, NE 68508
It is important to mention "Attn: I-765 Unit, Expedite Request".

- I went to the local office using INFOPASS appointment on 1/3/07 and 1/17/07 to discuss the same.
- Last update on my case is on 11/11/06 that is more than 60 days old.
As per USCIS memo to local office, I-765 application must be under adjudication before 70 days to receive EAD card in 90 days. For my case 70 days completed on 1/17/07 but there is no update as of 1/22/07, this means I may not get EAD in 90 days.
