    Is there a credential assessment required even for Canadian degrees? Is credential assessment usually only required for the highest degree attained (i-e only Masters degree and not the Bachelor degree)? I have a Masters degree from University of Toronto and a Bachelor from Asia. For the TN...

    GC for family and spouse's eligibility to work if I am on TN

    great and I assume while I am in US on TN and before we reach the 485 filing stage she does not have any work authorization and will need a visa sponsor like TN or H1 to be able to work in US. So my family is more like on a visitor status until ofcourse EAD is granted.

    TN to GC .. a timeline

    got it thanks... Having a masters degree from Canada put me in EB-2(A): category but this probably does not apply to TN? Not sure how some of the people I knew only took 11 months to 16 months from the point they applied for GC till they got it. Could be because they were on H1b? actually Iam...
