before you can jump into the the green
00:06
card or citizenship in this there’s
00:08
often a mythology that why don’t you
00:10
just get in line and get a green card
00:11
you have to be able to get here
00:13
temporarily and generally what you’re
00:16
looking at is the alphabet anything that
00:18
is called in a visa B visa and h-1b visa
00:21
and M visa Nell visa that’s going to be
00:25
a non-immigrant visa and each visa
00:28
category has very specific requirements
00:31
and length and a very different process
00:35

of the classifications are very very
01:09
specific another very common women that
01:12
we use is the TN there’s a lot of talk
01:14
about NAFTA the treaty
01:16
there’s a category that’s basically like
01:18
the h-1b specialty occupation but it’s
01:21
more just professional for Canadian
01:24
citizens and Mexican citizens so those
01:27
are kind of the top but it can go
01:28
