Some US Consulates in Mexico specify up to three years for the TN Visa. Examples:

Tijuana Consulate:
http://tijuana.usconsulate.gov/tijuana/tn_visas.html

Ciudad Juarez Consulate:
http://ciudadjuarez.usconsulate.gov/wwwhnivtn3.html

Hermosillo Consulate:

Any comment ?

Nope, it is for cdns as well. See this:

http://www.state.gov/documents/organization/87246.pdf

See the section "Length of stay in the United States" on page 7.

The maximum length of TN Visa is only 3 years. (Like H1/L1 - 6 years)

It looks like the Mexico based (US) consulates are issuing the Visa for a full length (time) when applied (for the first time itself).

So... nothing new in it. . I guess

Unless some one has personal experience... contradicting this..

U got it wrong - it is not the max length of the visa, it is the max VALIDITY of the visa. There is no limit on TN (like H1 has 6 yr limit).

The max validity of H visa is 3 years - likewise the max validity of TN status is going to be 3 years (currently it is 1 yr).

Upon my inquiry, here is what our corporate attorney's office had to say about the 3 yr TNs:

"For Mexican TN's only, I'm afraid. They are then given one year on their I-94 at POE. But, it saves two visa applications. No help for Canadians, I'm afraid".

Yeap, sorry for the oversight.
