I'm sorry I dont have full answer for your question.
If you already do have a greencard then you dont need an AP. If you want to stay out of the country for a year, you should try for Return of Residency.
Wait for Gurus to answer your questions.

What you need is a Re-entry Permit is NOT an Advanced Parole.
There are several differences:
1.) An Advanced Parole is issued to an alien who does not have permanent resident(green card) status. A re-entry permit is issued to a permanent resident of the U.S.
2.) An advanced parole is a piece of paper with the alien's photo whereas a re-entry permit looks like a passport.
3.) An Advanced Parole serves similar to a visa to the U.S. while a re-entry permit functions sometimes like a passport. Alien with an Advanced Parole still needs a foreign passport to enter into the U.S. while a permanent resident with a re-entry permit does not need a foreign passport to enter into the U.S.
4.) An Advanced Parole is valid for one year whereas a re-entry permit is valid for two years.
It is still the same I-131 form. but you need to send your application to the Nebraska Service Center. Do not send the form to the address listed in the form's instructions.
