Hi, you can apply for Interim EAD if you have got a job offer. You need to go to local CIS office and describe you case to them. Have you received any mail requesting additional evidence from USCIS ? If you have not got any response from USCIS within 90 days from the date of you application and you have got any job offer, then u can get Interim EAD. Please let me know if u need more details about it.

Hi, in my case i received my I-797 (acknoledgement for my application) in mid december. However, I did not get any response from USCIS till 26th March. Since 90 days were over from the date I filed my application, I visited local CIS at SFO in the first week of March to apply for interim EAD. But I was told that interim EAD is not issued anymore. I then waited for some more days and I could not find anything happening with my case. I then faxed a request letter to expedite my process to California service center with all the supporting documents like job offer letter, my I-797 etc. On 26th March USCIS sent a letter for requesting additional evidence. I sent all the required document to them and they received it on 23rd April. I checked the USCIS site yesterday and I found a useful document which tells that USCIS still issues interim EAD but the process of issuing it has changed. You can find that document at http://www.uscis.gov/files/pressrelease/ElimI688B_081806R.pdf OR just search "Interim EAD" on the USCIS site. I have now shifted to WA and visited local USCIS office today to check if anything can be done to get the interim EAD as given in the document and it worked. Immigration officer considered my case for interim EAD when I showed him my offer letter. Let me know if u need anything.
