My vote is option 3. in similar situations myself, only diff is that I also have H1. I'm going to try my luck with finding employment in CA while spouse continues her h1 for now. later she can also try and apply for jobs and then eventually move to CA. Else I can try to get back on H1 if CA plan didn't pan out

Yeah, I'm trying for a job with EY Canada. however it isn't a straight transfer as EY US and EY CA are separate member firms. Other than that relying on LinkedIn and networking with friends in companies who can refer internally

2) We both keep our US visas and I should keep trying to get H1
3) Let spouse keep H1 and I move to canada. Meet spouse on weekends
