Canadian Wife Living in Can - American Husband Living in USA

[CANAM1]

I am not even sure where to begin so I thought I would here Thank Any and ALL for any and all advice in advance.
My Wife and I were just married two weeks ago. She will continue to live in Canada with her boys from previous. I will continue to live in the USA while we get all the necessary paperwork and funding together to immigrate to Canada.
I know as an American I will always have to file US tax returns , but I am unclear how I include her if I am supposed to since she has no SSN. Do I just use her TIN? Also how does she account for me on her Canadian return with me not having a TIN nor having any Canadian income and not residing in Canada?

Thanking you all again.

Until she gets her green card, she cannot get an SSN, but you can still file jointly, reporting all her income, by applying for ITIN when you file jointly for the first time (unless of course, she already has one). Eventually, if she ever moves to US, she will gete a GC.

Until you move to canada, you are not Cdn resident, so she indicates married on her return, reports your income only on page 1 (no tax, but avoids incorrect credits given to her). If CRA needs you to get TIN, they will tell her.
