sure u can!
I have recently been to India - my wife had AP/EAD and myself just H-1. Our visas were valid till Sep-2002. On return, we just presented our H-1 and H-4 visas. The immigration officer didnt even ask to see her AP/EAD (I guess he *wounldnt care*/*doesnt know* that my wife has AP as long as H-4 is valid - same goes to H-1 too). He only said that since Sep-2002 is very far off, I will have to do something about the visa or I will be forced to leave US post-Sep2002. I told him that my GC is round the corner. Even though I was prepared with all documentation ( letter from employer, paystubs, tax returns, proof of GC in progress - copies of receipt notice and attorney emails), he never asked to see any of these. So go ahead with a peacefull mind and enjoy ur vacation!
