WHAT IS A TD NON-IMMIGRANT VISA?

C

September 2, 2024

Canadian and Mexican citizens with families who go through the TN Visa process and receive an approval notice may bring their spouse and any unmarried children (under age 21) into the United States under the TD Visa.


A NAFTA professional can apply for their immediate family to have TD non-immigrant status, which allows them to live in the United States, but they may not work. To work, they must apply for a different employment Visa.


THE APPLICATION PROCESS FOR TN VISAS

The application process for TN non-immigrant status varies. For example, a Canadian citizen must follow a different application process than a Mexican citizen.


Mexican professionals must submit their TN Visa application at a United States embassy or consulate. In addition, they’ll need to attend an interview and fill out Form DS-160. After they receive a Visa number, they’ll need to head to a United States port of entry to cross the border.


If you have Canadian citizenship, you have two different options. Instead of going to the United States embassy or consulate, you’ll need to apply for TN classification at a United States Customs and Border Protection port of entry when entering the country. Or, you can have your employer submit your application, employment letter, and Form I-129 to the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). Upon approval, you can enter the United States legally.
