Finally got my green card :) EB3 Mexican
Hi everyone! I wanted to share my experience as reading your experiences really helped me a lot on my journey :).
Some background about me: I'm Mexican. I came to the US on a TN visa a bit over 2 years ago and that's the status I've always had while working here in the States.
I never got an H1B visa, so if you're on TN and you get told that it's not possible to apply for a GC while on TN status, they're lying to you.
The company that brought me to the US did offer to start the GC process after I got my H1B, but I found a job at a great company that offered to start the AOS status for me without having to wait for the H1B. I applied as EB3 since I came here after I finished my undergrad.
