I filed for I-140/485 back in Jan 25, 2006 based on EB2 and got AP and EAD in March 06, then my I-140 just got amended to EB3. As you all know EB3 is affected badly by retrogression, and you can't file your I-485 until a visa number is available. But I have my I-485 filed based on an EB2 that later got amended to EB3. The question now is: what happens to my I-485, AP, EAD?

I need to travel this summer using my AP, but I am not sure what I should do.
I hope someone out there has an honest answer for me.

Thanks.

I don't think anything happens to your I-485. It will now be adjudicated based on EB3 priority dates instead of the EB2 dates. All it means is that it will probably take longer for you to get the GC. You can keep renewing your EAD and AP indefinitely until your AOS is adjudicated. It's safe to use your AP to travel provided you don't have overstay issues to deal with.
