EAD card in production!
This forum has been a great help. I am posting my experience and will answer any questions.

Status: AOS from OPT student to Permanent Resident through Immediate Family Member (C9), NBC, San Antonio TX field office.

I-485, I-130, I-765 filed concurrently (no Advanced Parole).

Case Received: 09/05/2018
RFiE request: 09/20/2018 (use the latest version of form I-864)
RFiE response received: 09/28/2018

Case is Ready to be Schedules for Interview: 10/11/2018
Expedite process: 11/27/2018 - 12/21/2018 (details below)
New Card is Being Produced: 12/26/2018

Expedite:

Called USCIS to expedite case: 11/27/2018. I did not receive any instructions on how to mail evidence after the call. I was just asked under what category I wanted to expedite (financial loss)

E-mailed congressman to ask for intervention with USCIS: 11/27/2018.

Received response from Congressman to reply with evidence of financial loss: 12/11/2018. Responded with evidence then and there.

Called USCIS again: 12/13/2018. My expedite had been denied as I did not substantiate my case (I wasn't even given the chance to!). Submitted another expedite request and this time I was able to argue my case over the phone; I don't know how effective this was.

Received response from Congressman: 12/21/2018. "Once this case is reviewed, your constituent will receive a decision or notice of further action... we are unable to provide a specific timeframe for the expedited review."

New card is being produced: 12/26/2018

In the end, I do not which expedite avenue worked but I think it was the Congressman as I was able to submit concrete evidence of my situation.
