BUFFALO, NY Office Establishes Appointment Process For TN Visa Filings
In April, the Buffalo, NY USCBP Peace Bridge port-of-entry office established an appointment process for the filing of TN visa (and L-1 visa) applications. While not required at this point in time, the USCBP office encourages them. Individuals with appointments will be prioritized over walk-ins.
Applicants must call 716-843-8521, Monday through Friday between 8 AM and 4 PM ET to schedule their appointments, which are available Monday through Friday between 8:00 AM and 3:00 PM ET. After the appointment has been scheduled, applicants may submit their application materials in advance to the Buffalo office via email to BuffaloUSMCA@cbp.dhs.gov.
UPDATE 4/13/2021:
Walk-ins will be accepted at the discretion of management. The office will attempt to fit walk-ins in between appointments, but will not guarantee they will have time to adjudicate the application that day.
UPDATE 7/13/2021:
Due to heavy demand for appointments at the Buffalo, NY Peace Bridge, individuals without appointments may not be processed, and may instead be scheduled for an appointment in the future.
Confirmation numbers are now being issued for appointments, and applicants must bring the confirmation number with them to their appointments.
