I am a Canadian citizen in California on a TN visa. I have been working on a project that I would like to post as a website and monetize, but has no relation to my TN visa, of course. Is this possible to do without having a green card?
- proberts 8y agoYou would need separate work authorization to do that.
- nawgszy 8y agoGood to know, thanks. Can I ask for slightly more direction on that? Can it be something like https://www.uscis.gov/greencard/employment-authorization-document https://www.uscis.gov/greencard/employment-authorization-doc... or is there a specific form I can seek to fill out somehow?
- yandie 8y agoYou'll need your employer to sponsor you for employment-based green card - you can't self-sponsor. However, TN visa is single-intent and meant to be temporary, i.e. you can't immigrate on this visa. This is different from dual intent visas H1B and L1 where they are dual intent. This means that you can't travel until you are granted Advance Parole. This can mean a year or two waiting in limbo in the US.
