Washington, (EFE) .- The United States Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS) has hardened eligibility criteria to access a TN visa, which allows Mexicans and Canadians of certain guilds to work in the country.
According to the USCIS website, the update of the professional categories covered by this type of visa assume that several specific jobs have been eliminated from the list, such as computer programmer or market or financial analyst, in addition to excluding any position that involves patient care or clinical support.
For the latter, doctors only describe now to opt for a TN visa if they dedicate themselves exclusively to teaching or research.

Trades such as mechanic, welder or electrician have also been eliminated, not even if they work supporting an engineer, and also those of radiology or ultrasound technician.
Likewise, in addition to hardening criteria for specific professions, it is now required that academic titles correspond exactly with the profession that will be exercised in the US, so that more titles will be accepted indirectly to the disciplines in which you want to work.
The TN visa is a non -immigrant permit that allows citizens of Canada and Mexico to temporarily enter the United States to exercise specific professions if there is an invitation in the form of an employment contract by an employer.
It is normally granted by periods of up to 3 years and can be renewed indefinitely provided the requirements required.
