I am Pakistani citizen, We married in Pakistan, I processed my spouse Visa to Mexico, I reached Mexico 4 months ago, Now we want to start our process for CR1 spouse Visa.

The US citizen MUST show domicile or intent to establish domicile in the US...such as a residence, a job, etc.....in the US.

Our case will be run in Mexico or Pakistan because I am in Mexico now, 

Your CR-1 case can be processed in Mexico since you have legal residency there.  You will need a police certificate from Pakistan once the NVC starts processing your case.

 

While your wife is working in the US, she is domiciled in Mexico.  For the CR-1, she will need to show that she is domiciled in the US.  Domicile means her primary home must be in the US.

Once you get. a US green card, you will need to live in the US also.

 

Do you and your wife intend to move to the US and live here after you get your US green card?

If she’s already working in the US, she just has to show intent to move there.  
You should have a straightforward case.  Suggest she start banking in the US and start establishing other ties.
