    Switch from H1B to TN1

    One final question, I hope. Can I transfer my H1B which expires in a few months, and then before it expires, mail in a form to transfer to TN1. The purpose is to avoid a trip to the border and face uncertainty. I would rather mail the forms.

    advice needed for filing LC

    thanks for the quick reply Eric. My wife is from a country where no priority date is affected. When applying for I-140 or I-485, can we not use her country as the basis to apply even though it is filed based on my employment?
