My question is the following:

how long do they count you as an international student (F1) after you filed all documents for AOS? My international adviser says that until I get my EAD I have to maintain my F1 status. I want to check if this is true with VJ members. Is there any official information about it?

Thanks!

Your advisor is correct. Maintain your current status as a student, that way, if the AOS is not granted, you still have your student status.

My Advice is usually based on "Worst Case Scenario" and what is written in the rules/laws/instructions. That is the way I roll... -Protect your Status - file before your I-94 expires.
