You can apply for a advance parole together with your AOS.

When you receive AP. This can be filed with your AOS and EAD. You will probably receive your AP before your AOS.

Certainly do not leave before you file for AOS. You need permission or you are back to square one with a visa.

Just to reiterate - If you leave before you have filed for AOS you will need to start over with the spousal visa petition (CR-1) to get back in to the U.S.

Wait until you have filed AOS and have received your AP card before you travel.

Not sure what 90 days you are referring to but, as mentioned by others, if your wife leaves before she gets her her AP/EAD combo card or green card she will not be allowed to return and you will have to start over this time as a CR-1. From what I've read, you should be able to get you AP/EAD combo card about 2 months after filing your AOS, assuming that you filed an I-131 and I-765 when you filed your I-485/I-864.You also might want to fill in your timeline so we have a better idea of your time frame. Good luck.

The 90 day requirement refers to marraige. You must get married within 90 days after entry into the U.S.

Yes, I assumed as much but, the way he wrote it sounded like he was interpreting the 90 day period the period in which his fiancee/wife could not travel back home. As amazing as it sounds, since joining this site I have read a few times of people who travelled back home on their K-1 without an AOS only to find out they were so screwed.

Yeah I've seen that happen here as well. Just hopped on a flight back home not realizing K-1 is single entry.
