Topic4 Getting GC through marriage to US citizen living separately in US

Getting GC through marriage to US citizen living separately in US

I am a US Citizen and would like to sponsor my spouse for GC. She is currently employed in a different city in the US and is on H1. Can she give up her job and move with me after application of I-485 or will she lose her legal status by doing so. When is she eligible to live with me, is it after she gets her employment authorization?

Can she give up her job and move with me after application of I-485 or will she lose her legal status by doing so. Once her I-485 is received by USCIS, she remains in valid status if her job ends.
