Hi everyone! Ive been following these forums for a while now, and all of these posts have been so helpful to us along the way!

We filed everything (I-485, I-130, EAD & AP applications) together on 1/8/14 with NOA's on 1/14/14. We have since completed the biometrics and have an interview appointment for 3/24/14. My question is .. I know that once you get an EAD, you can apply for a SSN and work, but does the same apply for a greencard if we get approved for the greencard before the EAD comes?

Thank you for all of the help provided on this board, it has been invaluable :)

Yes.

If you receive your green card first then your need for an EAD will be moot.

My wife got her greencard before receiving her EAD/AP. Yes, the greencard will supercede any need for the EAD/AP.
