The TN visa allows professionals from Canada and Mexico to perform certain activities in the US, and their dependents accompany the holder with TD status, intended for spouses and children under 21 years old, guaranteeing legal residence while the holder maintains TN status.

The TD status has the same duration as the TN visa validity, generally up to three years, renewable along with the holder.

There is no separate limit for the spouse, as the TD status is directly linked to the TN. It is essential to comply with American immigration laws and follow official updates to avoid problems, refraining from unfounded promises and strictly meeting legal requirements.
