Want to get married and bring wife to US on H4, after applying for 485..?



Hi everyone,
I would like to solicit your opinion/experiences on the issue of timing
on getting married.
My I 140 has been approved(Aug 7, 2006) :-) and my priority date is
current for filing I-485. Questions are:
1. When I apply for I-485, do I get the EAD right away?
2. Does the letter to get finger printed come out real quick?
3. Until what time can I add my spouse on the application so she gets
the GC at the same time I do? I am single and planning to get married
outside of USA.
4. How long can I utilize H1 status after applying for I-485 so the
spouse could benefit from H4 and hence quicker visa approval times?
Does applying for AP render H1 obsolete?
5. How long does it typically take for I 485 approval?

Please share your experiences , thanks in advance,
Jeff
