Hi,
I am presently in US on a TN. My TN is about to expire in march and am preparing the documets for my TN extension. I have some questions regd. the documents and educational evaluation.
1. I have the original degree certificate and the marks sheet of my degree.
Do, I still need a Transcript from the university?
2. I have bachelors in mechanical engg., but my job title is Software Engineer. Last time when I went for my TN, I took the educational evaluation done by park evaluations, NY, stating that my degree will be equivalent to a Bachelors in Management and Information Systems (Considering my bachelors in mechanical engg. and my 6 yrs work experience in software).
Is this evaluation good or will I have any problems because my degree is in mechanical and my work is Software engg and my equivalency is of MIS.
3. Is it advisable to apply for the extension, by mail or at the POE?
I guess I cannot attend at the POE more than 2-4 weeks prior the existing TN visa. If applying by mail, can I do it right away.
(I was actually planning to appear at the POE in the 1st week of march and god forbid, if something happens, then I was planning to come back and apply for extension by mail.
Please help.
Thanks,
