    Either way, make sure that you renew your TN before I-485 if you have less than 6 months left on current TN. This gives you time to get EAD to continue working. read over the thread at the top of this forum.

    TN Renewal with a self-petitioned I140

    First off, self-petitioned I-140 is rare, so don't wait for any first-hand experience. Your I-140 is no different than any others, so you follow the same steps as any other TNer with an approved I-140: you ensure that you file I-485 Or switch to consular processing with at least 6 months left...

    TN Application Methods

    So, whether you would be successful at the border after a USCIS denial, would of course depend on the reason for the denial, and your ability to fix/address that reason. But, other than that there is nothing that would prevent you from a border petition. If you are denied at the border (after...

    TN Eligibility with Bachelor's in Electrical Engineering and Job as Computer Systems Analyst

    No. You would need a letter from your supervisor, coworker, clients, etc for the 1.5 more years, which would describe your job. If you have an offer and don't yet have these letters, I would try with your degrees.

    No. Salary is only problematic for DHS if it would be so low, that they fear you would moonlight illegally. You are not at that stage.

    Travelling to India on TN while H1B is processing

    No problem. Have them check the status of your H1-B application at the airport, they will grant you H1B/H4 statuses at that time. If not yet approved, you will enter on your existing TN/TDs. I'm assuming you are all Canadian. Otherwise visas will need to be obtained for non-Cdns.

    TN Visa Application - Need Guidance

    1. Yes. 2. TN is not available for teacher. Most school boards will not spend any money going thru the sponsorship of a foreign teacher. Be aware that working as a teacher in the US is nowhere near as nice as working in Canada, neither for the conditions nor the remuneration.

Period. You provide your educational qualifications, which, again, should not be mentioned in the letter...

    Tricky Questions at the border interview: Software Engineer (Job Title) & CSA (Nafta category)

    Perhaps, but that does not satisfy US requirements. You need a eval against US standards. This can be done by Cdn firms (like WES and UofT), this is the normal process for anyone wanting TN with a non=North American degree. My response about using WES was in connection with an offcier insisting...
