OPT/EAD Card Pending for 3 months at Vermont Service Center

[rajarajan1990]

Hi All, I had submitted my application in early November to the Vermont Service Center and its been more than 3 months. I had put in multiple expedite requests before the 3 month period but all got rejected. I need to start my employment ASAP and need my EAD Card.

Can anyone please suggest me what to tell the customer service rep so that he/she can help with my case ?

Thanks in advance for the help .

If your petition is now pending for more than 75 days as of the date that they have received the application (the “receipt date” on the I-797), you can put in a Service Request. They must tell you why there is a delay.

When is your Starting Date?? Normally i've seen people getting them before a week of the OPT Start Date.

Even am in the same boat ! Applied in October and still waiting. ! Raised a service request and they told it's on processing hold due to security checks ! Any idea about this ??

that's the common reply they give to almost everyone who put in a service request.
To the one who put the question, whatever you say to the call center guy, little chance of change in the outcome. It takes the usual time as without a request.
I have put in 4 service requests and received a same reply every time. I got my ear card a little after 125 days just after I got the reply from my 4th service request that it is delayed due to pending checks.
It makes us wonder whether the service requests are actually paid attention to.
