The U.S. government has tightened eligibility requirements for the TN visa, potentially impacting Mexican professionals seeking to work in the United States. This change, implemented on July 6, 2025, affects professionals who previously qualified for the TN visa, a permit under the North American Free Trade Agreement. The visa allows Mexican and Canadian citizens to work temporarily in specialized U.S. professions. The TN visa is typically granted for up to three years and is renewable. The updated criteria may exclude certain professions, including computer programmers, from eligibility.
