Overcoming TN Visa Denial: Architect's Success Story

Navigating the complexities of TN Visa approval can be challenging, as our recent success story illustrates. Our client, an architect seeking entry into the United States, initially encountered obstacles leading to denial at a Buffalo Port of Entry. The reasons included insufficient paperwork, a mismatch between the job position and TN Visa eligibility, and unclear job duties aligning with the TN Visa profession.

Our Approach

Following the denial, our expert recommendation involved filing a new application through Form I-129 with USCIS. This strategic move aimed to secure advanced approval, bypassing the need for a return to the port of entry. This approach is particularly valuable when faced with challenges that may be difficult to address through an in-person application.

The approval process, utilizing the 15-day premium processing option, took a total of 18 days. Despite a brief extension beyond the standard processing time due to USCIS’s request for additional information, the outcome was a successful TN Visa approval. This case emphasizes the significance of strategic planning and expert guidance in navigating the complexities of visa applications.
