Strategy:
(1) To overcome CBP's frequent resistance to issue TN visa status to management-level positions, our office prepared a detailed application explaining the engineering duties involved in the position, and evidencing that engineers worked at a variety of levels including in supervisory/management positions;

(2) We also prepared materials to assure CBP that the applicant's degree was appropriate for the position. (As required by regulations, an evaluation was also submitted to show the applicant's foreign credentials were the equivalent to a U.S. degree).
