    I-797 for mail in TN approval

    Thanks Nelson; I'm just not having a great time with this contract company. They're insisting they keep the complete original as they are the "petitioner". They say they've sent "it" via snail mail without specifying what "it" actually is. Too much stress for too little return on this contract.

    I-797 for mail in TN approval

    I-797 from mail in TN approval Having a disagreement with my Contract Company they believe giving me a copy of the I-797 is OK. All my other mail-in TN extensions I've received the original. Does it matter? I am going to be crossing the border in 2 weeks I want to make sure I'm not going to...

    Change status B2 to TD

    Your next TN, should you get another one in 2009 or later, will be 3 years in length. Does that not make your life easier?

    VSC TN Times regressed by 2 weeks!

    It must be a typo on the website or a severe data issue on USCIS end as I got an email Tuesday evening last week that I've been approved as of Sept 2nd, 2008. Maybe this will be a 3 year TN? :D

    Work and study with TN

    1. Yes, keep in mind if you adjust by mail you CANNOT start work for the new company until that TN application is approved 2. USCIS doesn't care about your taxes that is the IRS' job USCIS is concerned about your IMMIGRATION status

    Waiting on company to start GC ...

    I'd wait until you get to the point of a formal offer presented. There's no point in spooking a potential employer right out of the gate. I'm assuming, and I'm wrong a LOT lately, this potential employer doesn't know you're on a TN?

    From full time to part time work irregularly

    :rolleyes: Would have been really helpful if you had shared this information at the start my answer may have been different. When you get to the point of legal representation please, please, do not leave out little items like; "Oh, forget to tell you last month, I'm married" or "we have...

    From full time to part time work irregularly

    I think you're on thin ice here mostly because anyone entering the US, TN, H1B, B -2 visitor, is expected to have resources to support themselves so they don't show up at the local food bank, homeless shelter, housing authority, etc. You obtained a TN for FT work which, because of a health...

    TN married to LPR - proving nonimmigrant intent

    I factored in the "goof in a uniform" factor on that assumption. I weighted it too heavily that they had a complete rookie examine the TN paperwork. Anyway, this is EXACTLY why I am not married to my g/f as she is a GC holder I have zero interest in adding any more "immigrant intent" than 11...

    TN with no BA degree

    I would have to see the internal position description, not the one that gets thrown out on Monster, Dice and to recruiters, to actually fill in the technical lingo. I think I'm going to start charging for this advice I've saved 4 people already this year from really, really bad offer letters. :p

    TN with no BA degree

    You need to do some SERIOUS reading of the requirments of Sci-Tech it is not just for research. You need to have "theoretical knowledge" and work "in support of an engineer"... So do you have theoretical knowledge of computer hardware/software/networking performance? Can you prove it? Would...

    TN married to LPR - proving nonimmigrant intent

    Possibly because "Landed Permanent Resident" is more recognizable as a Canadian Immigration term than a US immigraton status? I took this terminology to mean that the OP's husband is a Canadian LPR not a US GC holder.

    TN Status and WA DL

    I had my bank and my mortgage company call Equifax www.equifax.ca/ in Canada and pull my Canadian report. Most financial instutions here either don't know this can be done or are too lazy to do it.

    TN Status and WA DL

    I paid 3 months up front but was also lucky enough that my contract company provided me with a letter confirming work for a minimum of 3 months so the apt. managers took that on face value until my Canadian credit check arrived about 2 weeks after I had moved in. That worked for the apartment it...
