The only new
immigration provision created by the North American Free Trade
Agreement (NAFTA) is the TN Visa. NAFTA provides for
the temporary entry of Mexican and Canadian business persons to
engage in activities at a professional level.
To qualify for
a TN Visa the applicant must submit the following evidence:
- proof
of Canadian or Mexican citizenship
- offer
of employment in the United States in one of the professions listed
in NAFTA
- proof
the applicant is qualified to work in the profession filing fees
- filing
fees
A qualified
TN Visa applicant will be admitted for up to one year. Canadian
and Mexican TN Visa applicants are permitted to extend their
visas indefinitely on an annual basis. TD Visa status is
available for spouses and unmarried minor children of the TN
Visa applicant, which permits them to live and attend school
in the United States during the duration of the TN Visa.
