Going to visit for a few months before my NOA2

[Startedfrom 0]

Hello all, just had a quick question.

My fiance applied for K1 visa in the middle of January and she received the NOA1 on February 5. I work as a project manager in Canada, I just started a new assignment which allows me to work remotely for 2-3 months. I plan on going to the states and spending those 2 months with my fiance. I will have my rental lease, bank statement, my work letter, car lease etc. with me when I travel by air in March.

My question is, should I wait until we get the NOA2 before visiting her in the states, or whatever time I visit doesn't matter as long as I have no intention to marry until the K1 is approved. If I visit in march, I can stay for 2-3months while waiting for NOA2, then return to Canada after 2-3 months once we have the NOA2.

NB: Who receives the NOA2 in the email/mail? Canadian or US petitioner?

Thank you.

1) There's no guarantee how long it will take to get NOA2, so your 2-3 month timeline may be way off, but yes, you can visit while waiting.

2) Technically, you are not legally allowed to work, even for a Canadian company, even remotely, while visiting the US.

3) It is the petitioner who will receive the NOA2
