The main issues in this case were evidencing to USCBP that: (1) the position offered fell under the Computer Systems Analyst TN category based on its job duties, and despite the job title; and (2) the applicant qualified for a TN as a CSA based on her degree.

Strategy:
CBP officers frequently deny TN visa applications where the position's job title is not exactly listed on the NAFTA Appendix and/or if the applicant does not possess a degree in the specific TN field.

To overcome this, we prepared a detailed cover letter with supporting evidence to show how the applicant's job and credentials were appropriate for TN visa status as a Computer Systems Analyst under the law, and based on U.S. Department of Labor publications and other sources.
