Accompanying my wife (who is student) as a visitor
My wife is going to start her studies in the US. We are both Canadian citizens, and I'm working for a US-based company, that has an office in Canada (so it's basically registered as a Canadian company)
I would like to accompany her to the US, and help her in finding a place, starting her day-to-day life, etc.
We both have I-20's, and I intend to continue working for my company (the entity that I'm working for right now) while I'm in the US for a couple of months. I read another thread where people suggested to no to mention that you work remotely when your are visiting the US.
Now I have a few concerns:
Will I have a problem at the border? when accompanying my wife? is there a chance that they say "you won't come back to Canada, because your wife is going to stay there for a long time, so you will as well?"
Should I go there as a visitor or with the I-20? Considering the COVID-19 situation I'm not sure they will even let me in as visitor.
Thanks
