Once your I-485 is approved, your AP automatically gets cancelled. VivaLasVegas is right, the immigration officer should have taken your AP away. If you have an emergency and have to travel out of the country, they should stamp your passport. You have to set up an infopass appointment and...
You are fine. Your conviction is a single conviction and it was just an infraction. So it is definitely not a deportable conviction. However, no matter what you do, you should not lie about it. Infraction charges are usually erased from your record within a year. However, you do have to disclose...
I hope they will return your money as others have suggested. However, if due to clerical error the checks are being processed and the amount debited from your account then you can kiss those $4000 good bye. Once cashed, they will not issue any refund. You should seriously consider a stop payment...

I think that your immigration attorney is not very well conversed with the immigration consequences of criminal offences. I think your first attorney was right. If 12 months probation was equivalent to 12 months imprisonment then they would have placed you in removal proceedings instead of...
I carry a copy of my green card in my wallet when I am in town. I keep the original at home in a safe place. However, if I leave town for some reason, I take my Green Card with me.
