Thanks a ton Nelsona for the information. How would you handle the question by the CBP - Has your company filed a H1B visa for this by any chance? I want to go fully prepared.

Hi All, As some of you know I am working on a TN visa since the last 4 years and have never had a major problem renewing it except once at the Buffalo border. Now my TN visa is valid untill August, 2009 and my company filed for my H1B this year and got the approval notice for the same. I...

Thank you so much Old Meadow. I checked the fees for my wife's I-6539 and it is $300. So it will be a total of $620 for us both. We do not really require a lawyer for preparing this packet,right? I mean I have always prepared my own TN packet but always gone to the border to get it so just...

Almost Similar situation Hi, I am in the exact same situation except that my H1B approval has come without a I-94 attached because as Nelsona rightly said my TN is valid only untill August 2009 so I am not in status to request for a change of status. My question is, would be safer to apply...

Hey Nelsona, That was a good one Nelsona.... So what is I get asked when I return from my cruise if my employer has filed a H1B for me? Aren't TN and H1B kinda contradictory in terms of immigration intent? I can take the cruise irrespective of the approval/decission of my H1B, right? No...

Hi Nelsona, So will they take my I-94 while on cruise and do I have to re-apply for a TN visa all over again or is it like when I visit canada when they'll let me keep my I-94?

Hi Nelsona, I had a similar question. I have a TN valid untill August 2009 and my H1B application was filed by my employer on April 1st so it is accepted by USCIS. My wife is a non-canadian citizen on a TD visa which is also valid untill August 2009. We plan to go on a cruise to Bahamas for a...

Hi All, I have a TN that expires in August 2009 and am exploring my option to file GC as my employer has agreed to the same. My questions is, after this new TN visa 3 year validity, do the dynamics in terms of timeline of all the stages of GC change anything in the GC process? I have read...

We went to India in 2007 and the airline took our I-94 and we did not have any trouble getting a new I-94 with the same validity as the old one on our return to US. I am working on a TN visa and my wife is an Indian citizen and holds a TD visa. As Nelsona mentioned keep a copy of your I-94 in...

Hi Giova, I have had 3 TNs and and once I went to the Rainbow bridge border. They refused to give it to me with silly reasons. If you search online forums you'll get a lot of reviews saying they are the most busiest and they over scrutinize coz there are people going back and forth without a...

Hi , What is are the USCIS fees for regular processing to renew TN and TD? I do not need premium processing, just regular. Thanks in Advance

Hi nelsona, Is there any chance that if my current TN is expiring on September 15th,2008, CIS might grant me "Change of status" (New I-94 attached to my approved petition) and hence grant my wife also a change of status? Please let me know soon as I have to talk to my attorney.

Hi Nelsona, Thanks a lot for clearing my doubt on the I-539/TD/TN...

Hi Nelsona, Yeah all the sweat when I'm not sure if I'll be picked up in the lottery. Last year I was not picked up so maybe this year I get lucky with the economic recession and stuff Im hoping there won't be a mad rush like 2007. So if I need to go to the border and get my H-1B stamped, my...

Hi Nelsona, First of all thanks for your advice. The premium processing is not under my control. My employer uses an Attorney's firm and it is company policy to go for premium policy. I want to avoid the hassle of going to the border to the best of my ability. Now when you suggested submit a...

Hi All, My employer is filing my H-1B this year. The questions I have is my current TN is valid untill September 15, 2008 and if I get selected in the lottery my new H-1B will only start from October 1,2008. My employer is going for premium processing but can they do a change of status( from...

Hi, I am a Canadian Citizen and I am currently working on a TN visa in the US. I have been working on TN visa for last 2 years now. I work as a FT employee and recently there have been series of lay-offs in my company. Fortunately I have still survived, but not sure how long I will be...
