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.

Government and Public Sector TN Sponsors: Frequently Asked Questions

Which government and public sector employers sponsor the most TN visas?

Texas Health and Human Services Commission has the most, with 49 live TN jobs on Migrate Mate, followed by State of Missouri (36) and University of Minnesota (31). Across the 10 government and public sector employers on this list, Migrate Mate is tracking 255 live TN jobs, updated daily.

Who qualifies for TN sponsorship?

TN visa eligibility is limited to Canadian and Mexican nationals working in a profession listed under the USMCA trade agreement. Most qualifying professions require a bachelor's degree in a directly related field, though some accept equivalent credentials or demonstrated experience. The role must match the USMCA profession list, and the position must be full-time or part-time employment with a U.S. employer. Self-employment does not qualify.

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?

To obtain TN status through a government or public sector employer, the employer provides a job offer letter confirming your USMCA profession, your role's duties, your qualifications, and your intended length of employment. Canadian nationals present this letter, along with proof of citizenship and credentials, at a U.S. port of entry and receive TN status on the spot without a prior visa application. Mexican nationals apply at a U.S. consulate for a TN visa before traveling. TN status is granted for up to three years and is renewable.
