Visas for Certain Occupations Limited to Citizens of Mexico or Canada
The North American Free Trade Agreement, or NAFTA, allows for qualified citizens of Mexico and Canada to work in the United States on a temporary basis. NAFTA professionals require a TN visa in order to obtain employment in the United States. The law firm of Robert Brown LLC can assist you with the application process. Headquartered in Cleveland, our attorneys represent businesses and employees across the United States and the world.
TN visas, unlike some of other nonimmigrant visas, have no cap on how many new visas can be granted each year and have no limit on the number of years a person may hold TN status. To learn more information, call toll free at 888.861.4414.
