@CDN9 : your 3 year Bachelor evaluation from CES was accepted recently for TN ?
I am applying for 3 year Indian Bachelor evaluation from CES but I am worried they will give me 3 year Canada Bachelor equivalency only and TN will be denied based on 3 year degree :-(
Please suggest , is it your recent experience that they accepted your 3 year Bachelor ?

Lioness -

What is your educational and work experience background actually?

Do you have 3 years in bachelors of sciences or something else?

Without that no one can assess your situation. .

@CDN9 : Did your employer applied for your TN online ? you didnt goto border ?

There are two ways TN can be obtained.

1. With all the paperwork, you can go to border and get TN. - Immediate decision can be taken by Border Officer.
2. Employer files I-129 with USCIS Vermont Processing centre - which will take more time (around 3-4 months) to get decision.

For my first TN,employer issued the paper work, I went to Rainbow Bridge and got 3 years, for this term, they filed I-129 and got approval.
 
I had my 4 year Bachelors degree evaluated from IQAS (Canada) in 2007.
Also, on my 1st TN my employer used FHI to evaluate the degrees from US. (www.aafhi.com)
I used the same evaluations for the 2nd TN as well without any issues.

I just looked at FHI website and they can get the evaluation done in less then 48 hours.

Hope it helps.
 
As I said, the is no requirement that evals be done at UofT or any other specific location. I suspect that the firm our poster used is on the CBP bad list for previous issues.
 
Any one with any experience related to TN Visa
My Wes evaluation for Bsc(IT) 3 years India is
Length of studies 3 years
Us equivalency : Bachelors
Post graduation certificate in Mobile application development (Canada)
Length of studies : 1 year
Us equivalency : Undergraduate certificate
Will my length of studies i.e 3 years Bachelors be a problem in obtaining TN Status ?

It shouldn't since it is equivalenced to a US bachelor's. Little you can do except try.
Your post-secondary diploma is of no use in getting the TN, since, although it is from N America, it isn't two-year.
