Once you get your green card, you no longer need the EAD (work permit). Your green card is all you need to show that you are allowed to work in the US. In fact, I had my green card interview yesterday, and the immigration officer kept my EAD.

The EAD/Work Permit very likely has a 1-year validity period. Once you get your PR/Green Card, you won't need the EAD anyway (since the PR/Green Card will be your work authorization).
