Supervisor

Education:
Bachelor of Science degree in Forestry

Strategy:
The main issue here was establishing that the position offered, which was titled Supervisor, fell under the TN visa category for Foresters. USCIS often contests managerial positions' eligibility for TN visa status.

To secure approval here, we included U.S. immigration decisions, U.S. Dept. of Labor publications, and other resources that confirmed that the job duties involved were consistent with the Forester profession, and that other Forester positions had similar job titles.
