Hello All,
I hope you are doing well.
Background- We are Canadian citizens( me, my wife, and my son), my wife is on H1b, and me and my son are on H4. I was working on H4-EAD, and it got expired in June.2021( I've applied for an extension due to the coivd the timelines are very long, almost 14 months), So I asked my employer to sponsor TN for me, they applied using the premium process. I got my TN before my H4EAD expired. TN category is CSA and the job title is Data analytics manager, MS in IT from a USA university.
My company attorney told me that I need to cancel my H4 application because if it gets approved later, It will overwrite my TN status. so I requested USCIS to cancel my H4 Application. USCIS processed my request and canceled mine and my son's H4. I consulted with an immigration attorney and suggested that we cross the border and get him a new I94 to solve the issue.
So my questions are -
1. I plan to go to Blaine POE for my TN, my wife's H1b, and my son's H4 or TD. Based on the forums, getting a visa at Blaine POE is difficult, Is that true? OR is it better to go to Detriot or Naigra POE? what would you suggest?
2. I was dependent on my wife's i-140 application(2016) and my sibling sponsor I-130 (2012) both are in process. Will that create any issues? Both won't be available in the next 6-10 years.
3. We all are going for visa stamping ( H1b, TN, and H4 or TD) will that create any confusion to the officers?
4.I am already working in the USA, and have an approved I-129 document will that help to make things easier?
I really appreciate all your help!!!
Thank you
Ram
