After my fiancee gets from I-485 approved, how soon can we travel??

You can travel once you get the AP (advanced parole) card which usually arrives 2-3 months after filing.

But i should file form I-131 also or advance parole comes with form I-485. does my wife need to be approved to get this AP or she gets this while we wait for the form to be approved and processed ?

Yes, you'll need to file the I-131 with the I-485 in order to receive AP.

The AP will be issued before the form is adjudicated since I-131 is processed separately. Therefore, you'll receive the AP card while you wait for the AOS to be processed.

Print out your I-94 info > https://i94.cbp.dhs.gov/I94/request.html

Follow this guide for getting the SSN > http://www.visajourney.com/content/ssn

Follow this guide for AOS > http://www.visajourney.com/content/k1k3aos

The fees are listed here > http://www.uscis.gov/i-485

The fees for the I-765(EAD-work authorization) and I-131(AP-advance parole for travel) are waived when filed with a pending I-485, so include both of those too. It takes about 60-90 days to receive the EAD/AP combo card, which will allow you to work(along with an SSN) and re-enter the US when traveling abroad while waiting for the green card approval.

You need all the supporting documents for each form as well, so read the instructions for each one. You can also search here on VJ for what to include with each form if you get stumped. There are also example forms here on VJ you can look at when filling out the forms. They can be helpful.

And here are the details you need about whether or not you need to see a civil surgeon > http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/551080-immunizations-ds-3025-or-i-693/

Great thank you so much for all the great info, but this AP is also for K1 visa, because my wife arrived here in the states on a K1 visa and we ve been married now for 6 months.

Correct me if im wrong but the i-485 is PLR status and you no longer need the AP

I am not sure what you mean by, 'AP is also for K1 visa'. The K-1 visa is a one-time entry visa and became null and void once used to enter the US. You file to adjust status from the K-1 visa after you marry in the US within 90 days of entry. You file for the EAD and AP at the same time as AOS. The EAD/AP can be used to work and travel(re-enter US) while waiting for the I-485 to be approved. Once the I-485 is approved and you receive the green card, you are then a permanent resident of the US and no longer need the EAD to work and travel.
