枫下茶话 / 美国话题 / 急:加拿大公民申请绿卡期间被layoff,可否用TN申请其它工作my situation:
Citizenship: Canada
Visa: H1-B
PERM: certified in 10/2007
I-140: approved in 08/2008
My questions: If I got laid off, can I still apply for TN visa for my next job?

But it is very difficult to find employers who can sponsor H1-B right now.但是1-140批准后被lay off, I-140已经自动失效了,也就是说现在不可能申请移民了.这能否说明现在已经没有移民倾向呢?或用什么方法证明现在没有移民倾向呢?多谢了!!!

Good point! However, once you have expressed your immigration intention (surly, mistakenly), you still risk yourself at border point. I actually do not know how to erase your intention officially.

Theoritically, yes. Practically, depends on your luck.

In theory, I-140 != immigrant intent, but some officer would make I-140 == immigrant intent. Good luck!

Yes, Henry made critical point. To maximise your luck, you should never try border visa/permit application.The best option is mail application, the second best option is consulate application. I understand that is why someone suggest you to get renewed H1-B rather than TN, since for TN, you will have to apply at border point.

Thank you! Do you know how to minimize or erase my immigration intention officially. Should I find a attorney to submit TN application for me along with a statement declared my non-immigration promise in the future?

呵呵. 你这PERM和I-140的时间和我非常接近. 只不过我没H1(没抽到). 新工作用H1 Transfer 该没问题吧.

请问你现在还是TN吗?有效期是到明年10月份之后还是之前?如果是之前,有没有问题?谢谢。

Unfortunately, you can't apply for TN any more if you have already submitted GC application. I know one girl who went to Mexico border for TN not long ago. She got denied because her husband applied for green card (even she was just a dependent).

Thank you for the info. I think the family of girl you mentioned must have submit I-485 already, otherwise USCIS would not have her info in file.

file I-485之前应该还可以。I-140不等于移民倾向。H1也可以transfer. 不过要注意gap间不要out of status
