TN visa with Diploma

[TTM 0]

I'm a Canadian citizen inquiring about the TN work visa for interior design. I understand the eligibility requirements are either a bachelor's degree or 3 years work experience in the industry; however, I know somebody that was able to get this visa with only a diploma in interior design - which is what I have as well. This was in 2007 though, so I'm not sure how much they've cracked down since then. Is there anybody else out there who has had a similar experience? I've heard this is quite a lenient visa but I need to be sure it's worth applying before making an employer have faith in me!

Thanks for any advice at all!

When your friend's TN visa was obtained, how many years experience did he/she have?

How many years experience do you have?

Do you currently have an employer willing to hire you?

good luck

Thanks for responding

She only had three months work experience, which is exactly what I have as well.

I don't yet have an employer willing to hire me but that's what I will be looking for if it seems like this will be a possibility.

Regardless of experiences you have heard of, ultimately it will be up to the NAFTA officer who is reviewing your case

good luck
