Questions
Can I work in the U.S. as a Physician (teaching or research only) on a TN?
Yes, if you are a Mexican or Canadian citizen with an offer from a U.S. employer for a professional Physician (teaching or research only) role, and you meet the requirement: M.D. or Doctor en Medicina, or a state or provincial licence. Teaching or research only; direct patient care is limited to incidental activity. Physician assistants are not on the list.
What is different for Mexican and Canadian citizens?
Mexican citizens apply for a TN visa at a U.S. consulate before travelling. Canadian citizens usually apply for TN status directly at a port of entry or pre-clearance.
Does the employer have to sponsor me?
There is no petition and no lottery, unlike the H-1B. The employer writes a support letter describing the role, the duties and how it fits the TN category.
