I will be applying for I-485 soon (under F4 sibling category). Based on recent datapoints which timeline has a quicker approval chance, the combo application EAD+AP with the I-485 or only EAD application with I-485? My goal is to get EAD approval as soon as possible; don’t mind applying for AP if it makes EAD approval makes quicker or the same timeline; but don’t want it to get delayed because of AP.

My family based green card petition (F4, via sibling) is getting close and I might apply for I-485 soon. I am in the US now on F1 and have been here on F1 long period of time via multiple degrees, universities I-20 and OPT EAD. I do not have any out of status date throughout my stay. I am currently from 75 countries.
