Is there a TN Visa grace period after my expiration?

Answer:

Let’s break down the TN Visa grace period situation in a way that’s easy to grasp. Imagine you’re at a party that’s supposed to end at midnight. Previously, with your TN Visa, it was like you had to leave right at midnight, no extra time. But things have changed for the better!

Good News First!

60-Day Grace Period: Think of this as bonus time. As of January 17, 2022, once your TN Visa expires or your job ends, you get an extra 60 days in the U.S., Canada, or Mexico. It’s like the party organizers saying, “Feel free to hang around a bit longer, even though the main event is over.”
What Can You Do? During these 60 days, you can’t work, but you can:
- Wrap up your affairs.
- Look for a new job.
- Apply for another TN Visa or extend/change your status.
10-Day Early Entry: There’s also a neat 10-day grace period before your TN Visa starts. Imagine being allowed to enter the venue early to get comfortable before the party starts.

Remember, No Work!

During these grace periods, working is a no-no. It’s like being at the party but not being able to dance just yet.

Why It’s Great?

This change aligns the TN Visa with the H-1B Visa’s grace period, making life way easier for TN Visa applicants. It’s all about giving you that extra time to adjust, whether you’re arriving or wrapping things up.
