Yes, you can work with the GC. If the GC is approved first then the I-765 won't be adjudicated.

5-8 months or more. Yes if I-485 is approved and you have the GC in hand, you don’t need anything else to work or travel. If the I-485 is approved before I-765 or I-131, count yourself very lucky as that would be an exception, not the norm

Eh; if the lower end of the official processing time range for family-based AOS at your field office is under 8 months (which is true at a lot of field offices now), I'd expect to have your GC before EAD/AP at this point.

 

I'm not expecting Anastasia's EAD/AP to get processed at this point, with her GC interview scheduled for next month.
