Hi everyone, just wanted to seek some advice on the forum regarding me and my wifes situation.
We married recently after a year of dating and knowing eachother for about 3 years. We are committed to move to the US permanently. We are both canadian born and raised but i have US citizenship Via my mom as a report of birth abroad. I want to start the process for applying for my wifes green card but I just wanted to know a few things in regards to our process.
Ideally we would like to continue to live in Canada together until she receives the green card and is able to work in the US, we would like to avoid as much as possible any period of time spent apart where im in the US and shes still in Canada or where we both enter the US but she is ineligible to work while waiting for her green card.
Just wondering how feasible it is for us to continue living in Canada as we wait for the green card process or if I will need to find employment and a residence before they will consider approving the green card?
Our case should be pretty straight forward in that we are both canadian citizens living in canada while i hold US citizenship, neither of us have prior criminal records, we have no children, I am capable of providing the amount necessary to sponsor her and anything else that could be a snare in the process.
Any advice or suggestions on the timeline would be much appreciated!
