     However, depending on the country your spouse is from and what their training/work is, they might be able to apply for their own visa and get permission to work or an EAD through that method.

    Hi TakeruK could you elaborate more on this? what visa might this be? and do you know where I can find such information?

  2. I am currently residing in Europe and my partner and I are in a long-term relationship and neither of us are American citizens. Moving is a big deal for us, and we would like to make long distance across continents as short as possible. While I am pretty certain that I would like to pursue a phd in the US, right now my partner has less mobility as he is still finishing his degree for another year and a half. Ideally, I would like to defer a year so that we both have time to figure out if he can also come to the US and find a job (or more school). I don't know if this is a good enough reason for a program to let me defer for a year. Given the program is very competitive and funding is provided, how do you recommend I communicate my wishes? Anyone had similar situation? I am super excited about getting into these top programs, but my personal circumstances are making the decision making process very complicated and emotionally draining...
