Long story short:
My wife came to the US on a J-1 visa in January of 2012. That au pair situation quickly went south and she left the host family in Febuary of 2012. We were married shortly there after and lived in the US until she left in July of 2013. She has not returned to the US since.
I am a US citizen and I hate being without my wife! Are there any options for us other than a greencard? We are trying to immigrate to Canada within the next few years and I'd hate to spend all kinds of money on temporary residency when we do not plan on staying in the US for more than 2 more years. Is there any chance of a tourist visa for her or something? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
