I am a canadian citizen born in Africa. I have been working with a TN visa.
I met my wife and got married after she has filed her green card application (I-485) in December 2003 as an asylee. We got married in May 2004.
Now, my employer is going to file an H1-B for me next year. My employer advised to leave my wife out of this H1-B application and let her go through her process otherwise she will be pulled off her current application processing and tied to me. Does this make sense? My plan is to get Labor Certification and file the green card after i get the H1-B (through the employer of course).
I am hoping there is somebody out there in the same situation who can share experience.
If i leave my wife out of this H1-B, would i be able to include her when i am applying for the green card?
