Helpful Links:
1) Service Request: https://egov.uscis.gov/e-request/displayONPTForm.do;jsessionid=abcZ1Teq1_CynbjTFxXfw?entryPoint=init&sroPageType=onpt
2) Congressman : Find who is the congressman in your area and then you can fill form on their website
3) Ombudsman: https://www.dhs.gov/case-assistance

Suggestions: 1) Do reach out to Ombudsman and Congressman with all the job offers and if possible, letter from the Employer.
2) Do not just sit and wait. Start taking actions from day 75 (specially Nebraska and Vermont filers)
3) Contact employer and ask if they can raise a expedite request with Congressman on your behalf, Employers/Companies also have contacts with Congressman. (I was not aware about this, the Visa/Immigration department of my company also helped)
4) Apply 180 days in advance because 90 days is not a guaranteed time period now (This was my mistake as I applied only 100 days in advance)
5) Before reaching out to Ombudsman, you should have reached out to Congressman, raised service and expedite requests. Ombudsman form requires you to provide Request Ids.
6) Also Fax documents to Ombudsman and Congressman
 7) Service requests do not provide any help. Reach Congressman and Ombudsman
