How the TN visa works

TN is for citizens of Canada and Mexico working in one of the professions on the USMCA list. There is no cap, no lottery, and no petition for most applicants. With a job offer and an employer support letter, Canadian citizens are visa-exempt and present their documents at a U.S. port of entry, receiving status the same day; Mexican citizens apply for a TN visa at a U.S. consulate first. The exception is someone already in the U.S. who changes to or extends TN status, where the employer files Form I-129 with USCIS. What matters is that your degree or credentials match a listed profession and that the offer is for a role on that list. TN does not allow dual intent, so you cannot use it to pursue a green card. TN is granted for up to three years and renews indefinitely.

Aerospace and Defense TN Sponsors: Frequently Asked Questions

Which aerospace and defense companies sponsor the most TN visas?

Joby Aviation has the most, with 39 live TN jobs on Migrate Mate, followed by Shield AI (18) and Westinghouse Electric Company (14). Across the 10 aerospace and defense companies on this list, Migrate Mate is tracking 131 live TN jobs, updated daily.

Who qualifies for TN sponsorship?

TN status is available only to citizens of Canada and Mexico. Eligible candidates must work in a profession listed on the USMCA profession list, such as engineer, scientist, accountant, or computer systems analyst, and meet the education or experience requirements for that specific occupation. Most listed professions require at least a bachelor's degree in a relevant field. The position must be offered by a U.S. employer, and candidates cannot intend to immigrate permanently.

How much does TN sponsorship cost?

The employer pays the required government fees, not the candidate. Base fees run from a few hundred to several thousand dollars depending on the employer and processing speed, plus legal costs. Recent policy changes have added significant fees for some filings and the amounts have been in flux, so check the current figure before you rely on it.

How do I get TN sponsorship from a top sponsor?

Once a U.S. employer extends a job offer in a qualifying USMCA profession, the candidate gathers supporting documents: the offer letter, proof of citizenship, and credentials confirming they meet the profession's education requirements. Canadian citizens apply directly at a U.S. port of entry without a consular appointment, and the officer adjudicates the application on the spot. Mexican citizens apply at a U.S. consulate abroad. Approved TN status is granted for three years and can be renewed indefinitely while the qualifying employment continues.
