We are a California based company and want to hire a Canadian citizen. We do not have any office in Canada and will hire this employee as a full time H1B employee. However this employee wants to spend significant time in Canada and work from home in Canada since his wife is studying there. He will travel to our California facility one or 2 weeks a month but will mostly live in Canada.

Is this legal from immigration perspective? can we treat him as a full-time H1B employee (pay him full time salary, stock options, etc.) though he will only spend part time at our actual office?

Regards
