¶ … United States within the last few years has attempted to increase diplomatic relations with other countries, especially neighboring countries like Canada and Mexico. The best way to do this has been through the U.S. Visa System. With some countries getting H-1B cap exemption to others getting a TN Visa, the United States has provided unique options for some nations. This may enable further diplomacy for those nations or not. It all depends on the actions of both American and non-American citizens. Rule

American citizens also have some unique options when it comes to visa categories. United States citizens can opt for visas for their non-citizen family members. Although they have to file additional paperwork and it is subject to approval, spouses, children, and other relatives may be approved for a visa. There is an option also of a green card, however the K-3/K-4 Visa is a popular option based on a person's relationship.

To petition for a family member to receive a green card (permanent residence), you begin by filing Form I-130, Petition for Alien Relative. This form establishes the family relationship that exists between you and your relative. Sometimes the I-130 can be filed together with an application for permanent residence, officially known as Form I-485, Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status (USCIS, 2015).

This is especially true for immigrant visas and green cards that may take much longer to process.

2. Other countries citizens who have family in the United may be more inclined to see their families and move into the United States with this option (Travel.state.gov, 2015).

What is a TN visa? A TN visa stands for the visa category of "Professionals under the Rule
