TN visa with business background
Has anyone applied for a TN under computer systems analyst with a business background? I am going to a land POE tomorrow and expect a lot of questioning/resistance from the border officer because of my degree... #tnvisa #workvisa
Not sure but good luck!
thanks! need all the luck i can get
Do you have a degree in computer science or equivalent? If it's equivalent, do you have an analysis of equivalence prepared by a recognized expert? If not, it's a long shot.
i have a biz degree so i guess we'll see how this goes...
Yeah. My degree isn't CS, but was technical, and I took a lot of CS courses. Fragomen hired some expert in CS curriculum to write a letter stating that in their opinion my degree was equivalent to a degree in CS for the purposes of employment and that was accepted by the border guy. I dunno what would have happened without that letter.
It's slightly less of an issue if you have the degree + a few years work experience in the field to back it up. My degree didn't match my job title exactly, but it was explained in the supporting job offer/documentation they provided. POE was Pearson airport, all the horror stories I heard were at land crossings especially if you plan to get the stamp then immediately return to Canada, they don't like that.
so how did this go for you?
How did it go for you?
