Are you a Registered Nurse in Canada or Mexico looking for new opportunities? The TN (Trade NAFTA) Visa is a great way to start a nursing career in the U.S. This non-immigrant visa is known for its fast and simple process, allowing you to work in the United States for up to three years.
At Nucleus, we are dedicated to helping nurses like you achieve their professional goals. In this post, we’ll explain the key aspects of the TN Visa and how our support can make your move successful and stress-free.
What is the TN Visa?
The TN Visa is a special status for Canadian and Mexican citizens who work in specific professional roles under the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA). It allows you to work temporarily in the U.S. with a prearranged job offer from a U.S. employer.
TN Visa Eligibility for Nurses
To qualify for a TN Visa as a nurse, you need to meet a few main requirements:
- Citizenship: You must be a citizen of Canada or Mexico.
- Job Offer: You need a full-time or part-time job offer from a U.S. healthcare employer. (This is where we help YOU!)
- Credentials: You must have the required licenses and credentials to practice nursing in the U.S., such as a Visa Screen certificate, a passing NCLEX score, and a state nurse license where you will practice.
Why Choose the TN Visa?
- Fast and Convenient: The visa process is streamlined, and Canadian citizens can even apply directly at a U.S. port of entry.
- Flexibility: The visa is valid for up to three years and can be extended, giving you time to experience living and working in the U.S.
- Family Benefits: Your spouse and children (under 21) can join you. While they cannot work, they can attend school in the U.S.
- Extension Options: You can apply to extend your stay without leaving the U.S.
