Do I need to take I-485 receipt?

[irainesan]

I am visiting India on vacation. When I come back, if I decide to use my Advance parole instead of my H1-B, do I need to show my I-485 original receipt? Do I need to show my EAD card?
Is there any other documents that I need to show?

I-485 receipt is useful; doesn't need EAD.

No, I485 receipts are not required.

I visited india after 6 yrs in Jan 08 and came back on 5th Feb. I couldnt remember to take my i485 receipt with me to india, so i called my attorney's office and have them mailed to me in India. When I landed on 5th feb at Washington Dulles Airport, I had to go for a secondary immigration thing (which everyone, using their advance parole, has to do). Only document that we (me and my wife) were asked for, were our advance parole. No other documents were required.

There is one thing that I would like people to know, if your US visas have expired and if you are planning to travel by british airways, or any such airway which makes a stop in UK, you will require a transit visa.
