Well guys, it took a while, but finally got status update on EAD card production. Here is my timeline:

So hopefully, I'll receive the card by next week. It seems their system is finally getting into order and processing these things super last minute. I'm not sure if the service requests even did anything, or if it was going to be approved late regardless. Some of you guys might experience a few weeks of non-legal working status, luckily my company didn't even bother to check (didn't even check for the last renewal), so I got lucky there.
Otherwise, it's just the waiting game. After calling for the second service request, I kinda figured to just let this run its course, despite my expiration date coming up. I guess I got lucky it came in the nick of time even after I expired. So best we can do is just keep waiting, and praying that Trump doesn't win so we don't have to go through this hectic-ness again. Best of luck to those still waiting! I might not post much, but I do frequent here to keep up with news concerning us. So see you guys around.
