Asking a question on if anyone has navigated this. Have a personal situation and quite overwhelmed as spouse has to be out of the country for 1.5 years. #canada #vancouver #visa

US immigration laws don't apply to you if you are not in the country. Canada doesn't care if you work for a foreign employee without a work permit/PR as long as it's not a Canada based employer (check with a lawyer though). Both counties have tax treaties so you are only treated as a resident in one of them.
I am worried about the legal/visa implications
She goes back to Canada periodically and teaches from her home and then flies back to the USA.
