Adjusting from a TN status

[besonders 0]

Hello! My Canadian fiance is currently in the US on a TN-1 status that expires in May 2016. His current employment contract also ends in May 2016--he's applying for new jobs right now, but none of them would start until August 2016. We don't know where we are going to be as of August 2016--currently have a joint lease at our current apartment through July 2016, but we have no idea where we will be living next year (we are both applying for jobs right now and are both looking across the country--it could be Chicago, but it could just as easily be anywhere else). I don't know if this will be a problem for immigration--we won't know where we will be next year until, probably, June 2016.

We are hoping to get married in the US in January and then apply for an adjustment of status--is this a practical strategy for us?

I know that he would not be able to leave the country until receiving the AOS, but I am unclear on whether he could finish his current contract in the meantime, whether this would pose a problem for him getting hired and finally, whether they will be suspicious on our marriage because it is so close to the end of the TN status, and because neither of us have secured employment for next year. (He has always been hired on a year-to-year basis, so he has been here first on a student visa and subsequently on a 1-year TN, three times--I am currently a graduate student waiting to find out where (and whether) I will have full-time employment next year.)

There doesn't seem to be a lot of information about adjusting from a TN out there. I did find this thread (http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/212749-from-tn-status-to-green-card/)%C2'> helpful, but it's a few years old now, and we do have a strange situation in so far as neither of us know where we're going to be in August--but we would be happier if we could be together! I would be grateful for any insight.

Yes, AOS is a practical strategy. He would apply for EAD and AP for free together with AOS. He can't leave the country before getting AP or green card.

Apply for EAD and AP with the AOS, and hope the EAD comes before the TN expires. It should take 80-90 days. I adjusted from TN last year, the TN allows him to work while the AOS is processing. Good luck!
