Hi. If you marry, you'd qualify for the O-3 spousal visa, which allows you to live in the US, but not work in the US. It's a significant drawback to the otherwise robust O-1 work permit.

You could also look into options for her EB-1A green card, which includes a derivative green card for the spouse. I'd consult a qualified immigration attorney re the timing and filing procedures. It's a great choice, but it can be tricky to sequence it correctly.

If not married, you'll need your own independent work permit to live and work in NYC.
