TN Visa (USMCA Professional)
A Streamlined U.S. Work Visa for Canadian and Mexican Professionals

As a Canadian or Mexican professional, you may have one of the most direct pathways to working in the United States. Let's confirm your eligibility.

The TN visa is a unique benefit available to citizens of Canada and Mexico under the USMCA
trade agreement. It allows qualified professionals in specific designated occupations, from
engineers and accountants to scientists and lawyers, to work in the United States for a U.S.
employer in a straightforward and relatively fast process. For Canadian citizens especially, TN
status can often be obtained directly at a U.S. port of entry.


At NeoVita Law Group, we have substantial experience advising Canadian and Mexican
professionals on TN eligibility, documentation, and strategy. We help you understand whether
your role qualifies, prepare a complete and accurate application package, and ensure you are
ready for every step of the process.


Why Choose NeoVita:
We specialize in serving Canadian clients and understand TN nuances for Canadian citizens. We
prepare thorough documentation packages that clearly establish your qualifying profession and
role. We provide guidance on port-of-entry applications and consular filings alike.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Who qualifies for a TN visa?

Citizens of Canada or Mexico who work in one of the designated USMCA professions and have
a job offer from a U.S. employer in a qualifying role.

What occupations are covered under TN?

Over 60 professional categories are listed, including engineers, accountants, scientists, lawyers, pharmacists, computer systems analysts, and more.

Do Canadian citizens need to apply at a consulate?

pre-clearance location with the proper documentation.

Each TN admission is granted for up to three years and may be renewed indefinitely in three-year increments.
