Several months ago, my husband (who has TN status) and I separated. Our kids and I returned to Canada. Does anyone know how I would go about canceling my TD status? I want to make a weekend trip to the US, and don't want any problems. It is bad enough that I will be traveling with a passport...

They don't know how to fill out the form. I did it last year, and it got approved without any issue, but this year is different with the pending job change. They know he can't switch jobs until it is approved.

My husband needs to do his TN renewal. We're going to do it by mail because the border is too far away. The company he works for wants him to take a different position (he has been a management consultant until now). I understand that he needs the offer letter to reflect this, which is not a...

Thank you for the information Nelsona!

He'd prefer to do it by mail, since we're so far from the border. On the I-129, is there something special we need to do? I'm assuming that on the first page, part 2, we should select 2a (new employment) and fill in the new NAICS code? Is there anything else? I've only ever filled in an I-129...

Asking about this again... How do we go about doing this? His employer wants to go ahead with the change, so I'm trying to get the paperwork done. Thanks.

I want to learn to drive, and currently live in California. We renewed my TD status (and my husband's TN status) by mail, so I have the I-797A with an I-94 attached. I went to the DMV with the I-94 in my passport and they said they could not accept it for legal presence - they said they needed...

My husband will be finished his Associate's Degree soon, and his employer is talking about taking him out of his management consultant position and moving him into an analyst position. This would be a more hands-on job, so his current TN (management consultant) would need to be changed to a...

My husband is filling out the paperwork to extend his TN. I'm having trouble finding out what documentation he needs to send with his application. I know they need copies of our I-94's and an offer letter, but what else do we need to send? Thanks :)

In our experience, none of them know what they're talking about at the BC crossings (which is why we prefer to renew by mail, to avoid dealing with them). But if you're correct about TD being tied to the TN holder and not the employer, we are not out of status. If we can get the I-94 from the...

That could prove to be difficult, but we will give it a shot. Thanks for all the help, nelsona!

I don't know if they'll give them to us now. USCIS sent us the I-797C notifying us that the application for extension of temporary stay was approved. But they sent it a month after my husband started his new job, and his previous employer's lawyer did the paperwork, so the I-94s were sent to her...

Thanks Nelsona. So if we extend it by mail (our preference, since it would cost us a heck of a lot more than the mail filing fee to travel to the border), how would we go about that? The I-539 form asks for the I-94 numbers, which we never received since the previous employer has them. They...

This is a long story, so bear with me. We've been in the US since late 2004. My husband has TN status. Early this year, he changed jobs, but left me and our children (one was born in the US, so there's no issue for him) behind in case they denied him the new TN and denied him reentry on the...
