The TN nonimmigrant classification is used for professionals working in the U.S. under the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) formerly known as NAFTA. It is available only to citizens of Canada and Mexico. A prospective employee may apply for TN admission at a U.S. port of entry with a letter of support from UH or, if the person is already in the U.S., UH has the option of filing a TN petition with the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS).
