Complete OPT and Switch to a TN Visa
I finished my undergraduate degree and am currently working on OPT. I wish to change to the TN Visa. Can I do this and how do I obtain my TN Visa?
Answer:
Yes, you can complete your OPT status and then upgrade to a TN visa. You can find more information about the TN Visa here.
First, you must ensure you meet the TN Visa Requirements. If you meet the TN Visa Requirements, you can apply for the TN Visa.
There are two ways to obtain the TN Visa:
1. The easiest to apply for the TN Visa at the border.
2. Or you can file Form I-129 and change your status. Do this with care as it is a little bit more detailed and requires additional supporting documentation.
I-129 processing times can take between 30-90 days or more, so plan carefully.
