GC holder here. I started with TN visa and is very difficult to get the sponsorship by your current employer. I was lucky to have my wife (also on TN) employer sponsor both of us.
I have PhD in Psychology but don't have a license yet. Can I still qualify for "psychologist" category? I have been working as a postdoctoral fellow as OPT already and just need another year of TN to complete my postdoctoral fellowship.

If my offer letter states that it's an initial employment and gives a duration that is less than one year, will it affect the approval of the H1B visa or make the visa less than the usual initial 3 years? In other words, does limited job duration (as happens with non-tenured positions in a university which are renewed yearly) have any impact on H1B visa petition?

I went through TN and got my green card a few months ago. You need to time everything and not travel for some period of time, so there is some risk specially with a layoff. Also you won't be able to extend your TN so ideally start the PERM process early but also not too early 😄

A Mandamus is where you complain to the Courts that a government official is not carrying out his official duty, whatever that duty is. In this case USCIS officials are not processing your application fast enough. So you are asking the judge to command USCIS to do their job or face punishment, like a fine or a finding of contempt. Typically USCIS, if in fact they have taken too long for no real reason will actually speed up the process on that one application (but it depends on the individual circumstances -)

Thank you for this very helpful video for me. I am on a TN visa for the last 3 years and 12 months for my current employer. My employer offers to sponsor for a GC and since the H1B is already passed for this year, if we decide to go for directly sponsoring, do they need to justify to department of label why me and not a US citizen or I-140 would be the first step to the process? And how long is typically the process? Can I still be travelling internationally by the time the whole process ends?
