TN Visas

(only available to Canadian & Mexican Nationals)

Much like an H1B visa, the beneficiaries of this type of visa must be professionals from Canada and Mexico, working for a U.S. company in a listed category. This type of visa is available only for a period of one year but is renewable indefinitely.
