TN Visa after K1

[SJ1024 33]

Hi all! I wanted to ask a question regarding the TN visa.

 

I have held TN visas in the past and have had no issues. There are many more job opportunities in my field in the States versus Canada. I had met someone in the States while on a TN visa, but returned home to Canada for family reasons. After 2 years of long distance dating, we applied  and were approved for a K1 visa. 

 

I entered the States with the K1, but unfortunately things did not work out with my fiancé and we did not get married. I returned to Canada prior to the visa expiry. 

 

I wanted to ask if the prior K1 will have any effect on future TN visas I apply for if I am able to show I still have ties to Canada? 

 

Thanks so much!!!

You’re gonna have to prove very strong ties to your home country. Because you had an immigrant visa before you’re a red flag for them but if you have no history of overstays and you went back after your K1 without abusing it that works in your favor. Make sure you have strong ties on paper when applying.

Thank you for the reply! Yeah, I was worried that might be an issue ... but as you said hopefully it don't be if I  am prepared.
