Hi
I filed I-485 in June along with EAD. I didn't file for Advance Parole assuming that my GC will be cleared in six months. Now with retrogression, not sure when I will get the GC.
Is there any way we can apply AP now? I know that we can get AP showing emergency situation. Does USCIS allow applying for AP seperately for non emergency matters?

One more seperate question, I have H1 visa valid till Feb 2007. My passport expired recently and I got it renewed. They sent my old/new passports stapled together. If I go out of country, can I come back with the valid visa on the expired passport? Do I need to go to consulate for stamping again?

Thx in Advance
Ravi
 
you can apply for AP as long as you have I485 receipt.
Just carry both passports, you should be fine, no need to reapply.
