What are my chances of getting accepted?
Trying to apply for a TN visa for the first time. I live in Canada and went to college in the US. I played basketball in college so ended up transferring twice mainly for basketball reasons. I had a F-1 visa for all 3 of the universities I went to. I graduated this last May and back in Canada. I have a Job offer for a company in the US that I had done an online internship with.
The two big problems are the job category and the degree title. The closest job category to the one i’m going to is management consultant. I’ve been learning with them online and worked on multiple new platform integrations for optimizing the workflow. I heard that can help with the TN case.
The problem is my degree is Called Regents bachelor of arts. But, most of my course work was business courses. I was in a business major in 3 of the 4 years i was studying in the US. Only had to graduate with that title due to a basketball transfer situation where some credits weren’t transferrable to my new college. So, I had to change majors after most of my business degree was done.
I had called an immigration lawyer and as soon as he heard the degree title, he said I don’t qualify and that I need a business degree. But also read in other places online that I can make a strong case by including my transcripts in my TN package to show that I’m originally a business administration major.
If someone has been in a similar situation, let me know how it went!
