The only realistic risk of not being admitted is if the I-485 was found to be abandoned while outside the country, for example by missing biometrics/interview appointment or not responding to an RFE in a timely manner

Or, if it is denied during overseas visit.

I can understand why they are being overly cautious, but the reality is that as long as you have a normal case, the risk of anything happening is extremely low. We used AP several times as well, including trips over a month outside the country.

Per Visa Journey User data:  Note the sample size is small.

 

 

Also, assuming its very rare for AP and EAD authorisation to arrive at same time? From what I take, EAD tends to arrive first?

Yes, nowadays it's rare. Before they used to come together as a combo card.
