I got married in 2011, returned to US and filed as "Married filing Separately". I insisted that my accountant enter my spouse's name on the tax return, and he did. In doing so, we did not need to file for an ITIN for my spouse. I had no problems going through the NVC stage and at the interview.

I would say "Married filing separately" would not be an issue. If it is asked at the interview, just say that you will file an adjustment to "Married filing jointly" when your spouse is in the US.

You did the correct thing by filing "married filing jointly" when your wife did not have a SSN or ITIN.

You will not face any problem based on your tax filing.
