7-Day TN Approval for Electrical Engineer

We navigated heightened USCIS scrutiny to secure a TN visa for a Mexican Electrical Commissioning Engineer specializing in high-voltage systems. Our team mapped over 65 academic modules from his mechatronics degree to prove it met strict USMCA engineering requirements. By highlighting his role in U.S. grid modernization and providing endorsements from global manufacturers, we demonstrated that his duties were high-level engineering rather than technical support, achieving a seven-day approval via premium processing.

  • Swift 7-Day Approval
  • Complex Degree Mapping
  • Leveraged notable endorsements
