Hats off to TSC. Just FYI, I got both EAD (I-765) / AP (I-131) Renew approved in TSC. Fedexed overnight out Sept 6, 2007; RD and ND Spet 10, 2007. So don't count too much on USCIS's front back log here.
AP (I-131) approved Oct 11, 2007. In lawyer's office now.
EAD (I-765) not known when approved, I got the card in the mail box this Saturday (9-27-07). Just logged into USCIS and found LUD Oct 25, 2007 for sending out approval notice on Oct 24, 2007.
My 2 cents for all those waiting for your EAD / AP, be patient and USICS is working hard to get them out now.
