Hi, The USCIS site has the forms required for EAD application. You can even find a pdf on general instructions on filling the form. I think, if you are on an L2 you would need the form I-765. You can fill the form and send the following documents alongwith it
1. L2 visa holder I94 front n back
2. L1 visa holder I94 front n back
3. Copy of the VISA
4. Marriage certificate
5. a cheque of the EAD fees ( I think it is about $340)
6. A petition from the employer of the L1 visa holder
7. A photograph

These are some of the prime documents needed. Browse the net, it helps, you could get some more information.

EAD usually takes 90 days

Yeah, and you could send you application by post to the center closest to you. A list of the centers is given in the pdf document on the i765 form filling instructions.
