Secure Your E2 Visa to Start or Grow Your Business in the U.S.

NAFTA Based Visas

Citizens of Mexico and Canada who get a job offer in the United States may qualify for a TN temporary work visa. This visa type allows eligible individuals to obtain work visas faster and with minimal documentation.

However, the job offered in the United States must be from a list of occupations or jobs defined by NAFTA. If you’re a Canadian or Mexican, the TN visa may be the ideal visa type for you.

Why Is a U.S. Work Permit Important?People from all over the world want to work in the United States. In most cases, foreign businesses and nationals wishing to work in the U.S. will need to apply for a work visa. There are a variety of work visas available and applicants need to determine the ones they are eligible for, how to apply for them correctly, and the right documentation to have.

Employers in the United States must verify that their employees have the authorization to work in the United States. Refugees, those seeking asylum, permanent residents, and certain nonimmigrants may have the authorization to work due to their immigration status.

Migrants who are not under any of these categories, such as the family members of employment-based nonimmigrants, may be required to apply for an EAD from the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). Basically, your immigration status often determines the kind of documentation you'll need to submit to show that you've been authorized to work or gain employment in the United States.
