I am on a TN Visa and want to get married to my American boyfriend but I do not want to jeopardize my job. Can I apply for the Adjustment of Status (I-485) or will I have problems with my TN1 Visa?
Answer:
A TN Visa applicant can marry a U.S. citizen and then apply for the Adjustment of Status.
BUT you want to be careful. If the application is done correctly, then you will not experience any interruption in your job.
Due to the temporary nature of the TN Visa, there are various things you should or should not do to avoid any issues.
Take the following steps to move forward successfully:
1. Read our TN Visa to Green card by Marriage article. Pay extra attention to the highlighted sections.
2. Email us at support@tnvisaexpert.com to identify any issues that you may have based on your situation.
