Can my spouse work if I'm on a TN or L-1?

FAQ Part I-Frequently Asked Questions: Canada to U.S. Immigr...
ANSWER: Not automatically. You can change your status to permanent residency, in which case your spouse would be able to work on her green card. Speed is crucial since green cards take time. Your spouse could also change from TD (dependent of a TN) to a temporary working visa. This is the same for L-2 (L-1 dependent), E-4 (E-2 dependent) and H-4 (H-1 dependent) spouses.

Question 5. Can my spouse work if I'm on a TN or L-1?

Immigration Lawyers - Hansen & Company
Answer: First of all, you should note that the BCIS does not recognize common-law relationships. Therefore, if your spouse wishes to claim status, you will need to show proof of a legal marriage. If you are on a TN visa, your spouse will be eligible for a TD status (Dependant of TN) but will NOT be eligible to work unless he/she qualifies and applies for his/her own work visa.

bull; Can my spouse or dependents work when I'm on a TN or L-1 visa?

Aasha Immigration ::-
No. But if you change your status to permanent residency, then your spouse and other dependents would be able to work on their green cards. Spouse and other dependents could also change from TD [dependent of a TN] to a temporary working visa. This is the same for L-2 [L-1dependent], E-4 [E-2 dependent] and H-4 [H-1 dependent] spouses. A mandate is emerging in the Working Group of NAFTA to move towards allowing TD's to work, without having to find an employer. But this is not reality yet.

Yes. You can apply for an employment authorization document (EAD) at the service center that has jurisdiction over the place where you live. The form number is I-765. No, you cannot work. If you qualify for it, then you can of course change to another status that does allow work. For instance, many spouses of H-1Bs are able to qualify for an H-1B of their own.

I have an H-1B or L-1 visa, and my spouse would like to do unpaid volunteer work. Is this possible?

US Immigration H-1B and L-1 Visa FAQ
Sometimes, but tread carefully. The main criterion is whether this work would be performed unpaid by Americans, as well. Most importantly, it is illegal to volunteer for a productive position. There is a good reason for this rule: the system of work authorizations was set up to ensure that Americans are given the opportunity to earn money.

Question: What is TN?

Trigeminal Neuralgia Association
Answer: A disorder of the 5th cranial nerve. As the Trigeminal nerve exits the brainstem, it is compressed by a blood vessel as. The compression causes the lining of the nerve (the myelin sheath) to wear away. When the message travels down the nerve and reaches the demyelinated area, the message jumps to the next nerve, this is called cross talk. It is much like a chair setting on an electrical cord.

QUESTION 5: What is a QI-EIN?

Qualified Intermediary Frequently Asked Questions
ANSWER 5: A QI-EIN is a special Employer Identification Number assigned by the IRS to a QI.

Question: Some people say their trigeminal pain started soon after dental work. Can that cause TN?

Trigeminal Neuralgia Association
Answer: (Steven Graff-Radford, D.D.S. TN Alert, Fall 1995) Invasive dental procedures do not cause TN, but they often can be the triggering factor that will initiate TN pain in a patient who is already predisposed to it. Answer: (Steven Graff-Radford, D.D.S. TN Alert, Fall 1995) The reason it isn't constant is because the amount and location of demyelination (loss of the nerve's protection coatings) is only sufficient to sensitize the nerve cell bodies.

Trigeminal Neuralgia Association
Answer: Yes, it is treated with anticonvulsants. The most effective treatment is with carbamazepine. There are other medications that can be tried such as Dilantin, and most recently Carbatrol and Trileptal. If these medications become ineffective or the side effects intolerable, surgical treatment can be offered.

Question: What's your view on the cause of TN?

Trigeminal Neuralgia Association
We believe TN results from hyper-excitability of the trigeminal nerve. After exceeding a certain threshold, the increased electrical impulses traveling through the trigeminal nerve activate pain regions in the brain. Trigeminal hyper-excitability is caused by injury to the myelin sheath that insulates the nerve fibers. When the myelin sheath is injured, electrical impulses are either activated, short circuited or reverberate, resulting in increased electrical traffic in the nerve.

Question 4. Is there a minimum number of days an L-1 holder must stay in the U.S. every year?

Immigration Lawyers - Hansen & Company
Answer: Good question. Many people look at the name of the visa, "The L-1 Intracompany Transferee", and say "It's not for me. . .I'm not being transferred to the U.S." They feel it's not for part-time work. In fact, as long as you are performing services for the U.S. subsidiary, you can still be paid through the overseas parent. (Of course, you can be paid from the U.S. subsidiary, if you'd like. The US CIS may find it easier to deal with, if your salary comes from the U.S.
