Dear friends,

I need to decide what to do rapidly, because my TN is expiring tomorrow. Thanks for the previous advice, things are still a bit not clear to me on what to do. If I return to Canada now that my TN visa is expiring and wait there and probably in one or two weeks ( I already got a face to face interview with 2 employers in the states one in CA and the other one in AZ last week just waiting for an offer I think I have good possibilities), my dilemma is: return to Canada and wait there for an offer and reapply by that time again for TN would that be more difficult than if I reapply with my current employer get an update of my TN and in one week or so I will have to reapply again because I will change my employer. Please let me know your advice on this matter. I heard people saying that is difficult to exchange employers while in TN specially if you just got a previous one recently and it's advisable to wait until you are close to the end of the period.

Thanks again,

Jose
 
If you go back to canada now and get the offer for the other employer later I don't think you will have any problems at the border when applying for a new TN as long as you meet the requirements for the job and category you are applying under. But you shoud renew your current TN just in case you don't get the job,unless you are absolutely sure you are going to get it, you can have multiple TNs no problems with that.

TN Visa expiring soo...

Dear Friends,

Thanks for your answer. I heard several versions of people getting refused their second TN because they got one before, even got their I-94 removed from their previous employer. That's why I am nervous concerning that, company is not doing too good and pay is low, I accepted because I was trying to get myself into the US market. I know it's a risk but I wanted to try to avoid any issues regarding that are why I was trying to keep only one TN at a time to avoid any problems. My I-94 is ending on July 1st and I also try to avoid any penalties if I overstay. If I try to reapply with original employer I don't know how much time I have to try to reapply with current employer (?) as my I-94 is almost ended. (date stamp in the form July 1st). That’s why I was planning to return to Canada to wait there for the results. I expected to have and answer of the other potential employers two week ago but face to face interviews were delays and happened just this week that is ending, so I have to wait until one or two weeks to get the final results. I am confident I will get the other job, I meet the requirements for the job category, I guess what worries me more are questions concerning ties to Canada as I will enter the country and then shortly tries to leave again to work in the states.

Thanks for your help and advice. Any thoughts concerning that are very welcomed.

Regards,

Josep
