Default Bringing Canadian wife to work in US

Hello,
I am a US citizen living in Canada. I work for a Canadian company who
has a project they would like me to work on in the US. They would also
like my wife to work there, but She is Canadian.

What would be the most expediant procedure to get Her legal to work
along with me, in the US??

Thanks in advance

TN visa (NAFTA) is the fastest way. It will take her 30/60 min at the
border crossing. But you have to check the list of occupations.

If you qualify, "DCF" through Montreal should be quickest, easiest and least hassle method IMVHO. Try a marriage forum for more info:

It seems that you are not in a hurry; think about sponsoring her and get her a GC; in your conditions it wil be really easy. Good luck.

GC is the so called "Green Card" (very easy, just ask about that in the US Consulate) which equals to "Permanent Residence" in Canada; after 3 years she will be eligible to become a USC (US Citizen) which would be very convenient to the two of you believe me. Best luck.
