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.

Top TN Cities: Frequently Asked Questions

Which U.S. cities have the most TN jobs?

Houston leads, with 1,008 live TN jobs on Migrate Mate, followed by Boston (881) and New York (771). Across the 10 metros on this list, Migrate Mate is tracking 6,778 live TN jobs, updated daily.

Who qualifies for TN sponsorship?

TN status is available exclusively to Canadian and Mexican nationals working in a profession listed under USMCA, such as engineer, accountant, scientist, or computer systems analyst. Most listed professions require a bachelor's degree in a directly related field, though a small number accept equivalent experience. Canadians apply at a U.S. port of entry without a visa stamp; Mexicans apply at a U.S. consulate. TN does not permit dual intent.

Can my spouse or family work on TN?

No. TD dependents, the spouse and children of a TN worker, can live and study in the U.S. but are not authorized to work.

How does TN compare to H-1B?

Unlike H-1B, TN has no lottery, so selection is not a barrier. The trade-off is eligibility: H-1B is open to any specialty occupation worldwide, while TN is limited to specific nationalities or roles. If you qualify for TN, it is often the faster and more predictable route; if you do not, H-1B may be the only option.

How much does TN sponsorship cost?

Very little compared with other work visas. There is no petition and no labor certification, so the employer has no filing fee to pay. Canadian citizens pay a small processing fee when they present their documents at a U.S. port of entry, and Mexican citizens pay the standard nonimmigrant visa application fee at a U.S. consulate. Some employers cover a legal review of the paperwork, though many candidates handle it themselves.

How do I find a TN job in these cities?

Migrate Mate lists TN-eligible roles by metro, searchable by profession and employer. Start by identifying openings in your USMCA-listed occupation, then confirm the employer is willing to support TN status. Many roles are hybrid or remote, so candidates routinely relocate after acceptance. Once you have an offer letter and supporting credentials, Canadians can present their documents directly at a U.S. port of entry without advance filing.
