Married on K-1, Q's re: Adjusting Status

My Husband and I just got married 2 weeks ago (I have my K-1), and we are almost done filling out all of the piles of paperwork for my adjustment of status.

I have a couple of questions:

1) I am from Canada, and I need to return to take care of some unfinished work. I have filled out the form for Advance parole. Does anyone know how long it takes to get this approved. If I leave the US in the next 3 weeks, possibly/likely before it is approved, will this cause me any problems? I need to be in Canada for ~4-5 weeks, so it is possible that I will be granted the advance parole during that time, and my husband could send it to me in Canada. Any thoughts? I really don't want to go to Canada and risk being unable to re-enter the US.

2) When filling out the I-131 for my Advance parole, one of documents that they state must be attached is the receipt for my CIS application for AOS. If I am filing them together (at the same time), do I still need the receipt? OR, do I have to file the I-485 first, wait for the receipt, and then the I-131?

Any help would be great, Thanks!
Andrea
