Hello,
I am currently working in the US on a TN.
I've read that there is now a grace period for those on a TN status following the termination of employment for either 60 days or when their period of validity ends, whichever comes first.
Here's my situation: This fall I will be going to start on my masters degree, so I will be switching to F-1. My current TN ends on July 23rd, and I am not allowed to reenter on an F-1 until late August, so I will be leaving the US during this period of time. I am planning to quit my job on July 6th and leave the US on July 16th, so I can spend those days taking care of some personal matters. I would just like to know whether this is allowed under the grace period, and how do I notify USCIS (if needed) that I would like to use that grace period.
Your help is much appreciated! Thanks in advance!
