TD renewal, will possibly expire before new one processed

[engineerks]

I got a new TN that my employer paid to rush process, my wife and daughter's TD extension have been filed with regular processing but according the processing times, there may be a about a 10 day period between the expiration of the old one and the new effective date. Will this be an issue? Should they go back to Canada before the expiration?

Thank you!

The fact that they have filed before expiration keeps them in status for 240 days past expiry.

Of course, if they leave US, they should simply get a new TD at the border, with a copy of your TN and birth/marriage certs

Thank you! My wife was getting very worried about it! The only reason they would go back would be to wait for the renewal (or get a new one) so now they can stay put! Thank you again!
