IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresCan USC Petitioner Leave US for 1 month after entering US with CR-1 Applicant?

Hello! 

 

 

Background:

Me and my wife are (hopefully) nearly done getting her CR-1.  She is slated to begin University in the USA starting this September.

 

We are living abroad, and my job requires that I give 60 day notice before leaving in order to collect benefits and settle everything.  I'd really like to do this, but obviously, my priority is with my wife and our new journey to the US!

 

I know USCIS (rightly) discourages us from leaving jobs or selling property/ etc before receiving our visas, so I haven't put in a 60 day notice, but September is approaching fast!

 

I believe that we should enter the US together, and I'm okay with that.  My permanent residence is with my parents, who will help us while we get set up.

 

 

 

Main Question:

If we get our visa, would it be okay if I put in my 60-day quitting notice, have us both go to the US, and have me return to this countyr to finish my final 45-or-so days, at which time I will return to the United States?  This would really help us in a variety of ways (securing good employment references and saving a lot of money). 

 

 

Thank you so much!  I'm so glad I found this community (and wish I had found it sooner).

 

Thanks again!!!!!!!!!!
