hi friend..i rescived my COA 2 weeks ago and it is mentioned that i have the same rights as an EU citizen, until my application is approved and even a part of letter for employers that tells them that the applicant is allowed to work :)

Hi there, I have a residence card as unmarried partner of an EEA citizen. When I received my COA in November it only stated that my application had been received by UKBA and recommended not to contact them for progress updates!
I assume you're applying as a spouse? Spouses are entitled to work but unmarried partners ('extended family members' aren't (as far as I understand).

Due to the fact you held an EEA family permit, you should have been treated as a family member as stipulated on Regulation 7(3) and issued with a COA confirming your right to work.
[b] EEA Regulation 2006[/b] wrote: (3) Subject to paragraph (4), a person who is an extended family member and has been issued
with an EEA family permit, a registration certificate or a residence card shall be treated as the
family member of the relevant EEA national for as long as he continues to satisfy the conditions in
regulation 8(2), (3), (4) or (5) in relation to that
