Getting job in US on TN visa - Indian immigrant on Canada PR
Hi All,
As an Indian immigrant in Canada, I am keen to work in US on TN visa once I get Canadian citizenship after spending 3 years on Canada PR. What restrictions I would have since I am not a Canadian citizen by birth?
1. Can I travel to US on b1/b2 visa in search of a job and then tell the employer of needing TN visa after getting through interviews?
2. What visa duration is normally granted to people on TN visa?
3. Are there any complications in extending TN visa?
4. TN visa isn’t a dual entry visa and hence GC is not possible while being on TN visa. Is transferring to H1B the only option for getting into a GC queue?
5. If I go on H1 (assume that I get through lottery), then being on TN visa before being on H1, does that mean my wife on H4 isn’t allowed to work till I go pass the first stage of GC (approved immigrant worker petition)?
Answering above questions point wise would be appreciated. Thanks in advance for your help.
