I am in this exact process right now. I had a TN for a year. I'm now on my first H1B. It's good for 3 years. You can renew once, for another 3 years. The...
I also came into the US with an L1 visa. I think the L1 visas are specifically classed as "non-immigrant" work visas, so they are not visas from which you can...
Hi Does it really take 8 months to go from a Tn to H1b? My employer is going to do this for me. My Tn runs out June 29, 2005 MY employer would like to sponsor...

Thank you all for your advice. I really appreciate it. I did know it was less conservative up there but I did not know how much. I talked to my partner this...
