TN Visa - Frequently Asked Question
I am on an F-1 student visa getting my doctorate degree and have an OPT option. Can I begin the employment on a TN Visa rather than the OPT option?
Answer:
If you are on a F1 visa and have an Occupational Practical Training (OPT) you must complete this OPT portion before obtaining the TN Visa.
