>>But the wait time would still apply to me since I was born in India Yes, That's what I was saying in my very first response. But for EB1, the wait times are less as compared to EB2.

"The employer will not pay you until they find another project" - this method of employment (used to be called "being on the bench") is not legal anymore. 1. So when your project (and your pay) ends, your employment ends and you must leave US. 2. Yes 3. Yes, the new TN that lines up with your...

Yes, you can start your GC process while on TN (without applying for H1B). Many people in this forum have taken this route - check out the very first link on this forum: Curiousgeorge TN->GC link.

Yes, you are right about skipping PERM for L1A. But it could be faster to start your GC process (while on TN) without waiting for getting L1 (if waiting to get L1 is taking longer)

How do you think it will it "speed up" your process by being on "L" status? There is a long wait for India born people (Priority date) irrespective of their H or L status. You could start your process on any (H/L/TN) status.

If you are applying by mail (I-129), then you can apply up to 6 months in advance - that way you can use your valid passport as a proof of your Canadian citizenship. But if you apply in-person at the border (land/airport), you can apply only a few (couple?) weeks in advance in which case you...

Never happened to me.

1. yes 2. not necessary; just your TN approval notice is enough.

Yes, if they have a law firm that handles immigration matters.

1. Yes 2. Yes 3. don't know - but I have not seen any requirement of any specific timeline for degree evaluation.

It could raise doubts regarding the validity of your offer - since you "missed" the start date when you arrive on 1/19. Better to get the letter fixed.

Your spouse's (or even your) I-140 - pending or approved - has no effect on your TN status.

I suggest finding a job first with the matching TN category and your skillset and then apply for TN based on that.

The TN letter must have the (TN) Job Title along with the specific job responsibilities for the job offered. The attempt to obtain TN without any concrete job offer (to "market" you in the US job market, as you are saying) does not look right and could be fraudulent from the immigration...

1. Talk to your employer about this since they have filed an application that might have to be amended. 2. You can certainly go ahead for your TN - but if your H1 is activated (not just an approval notice) AFTER your TN approval, your TN becomes void - since you can be only on a single status...

Yes, your question is clear and I do not think your pending I-129 for a new TN will be denied due to your international travel while your existing status is valid. Disclaimer: Not a legal advice; Consult your corporate attorney if still in doubt.

Your I-129 is essentially for a new TN, since you apply for a new TN every time your TN expires. That said, I do not understand how it will jeopardize your existing TN status (and Visa, if you have one) that is valid and will be valid at the time of your return to the US.

Yes - "Engineer" position is ok as long as your degree evaluation is done (and has no issues). Once your degree is ok for a particular (e.g. Engineer) position, your work experience does not matter - in fact your ".NET" experience is not related to your degree.

Yes, especially while your TN/I-94 is still valid.

It depends on the TN position (category) - also, you need to get your degree evaluation done.
