Is it necessary to register the employment contract with any American agency?

The TN visa was created to facilitate the entry of qualified professionals from Canada and Mexico in specific fields of work into the United States, based on the terms of the USMCA (formerly NAFTA). It allows these professionals to work temporarily in the country without the need for more complex immigration procedures.

Regarding the employment contract, there is no requirement for formal registration with any American government agency. In other words, the contract itself does not need to be filed with any specific entity. However, it is essential that the document meets the necessary requirements to prove the job offer, including details such as the position, salary, duration of employment, and job responsibilities. These elements are crucial to demonstrate that the employment relationship meets the criteria established for the TN visa.

It is always important to observe US immigration laws and regulations. Seeking accurate information and, if necessary, guidance from trusted specialists or consultancies can help avoid complications or, worse, falling victim to scams or dubious promotions promising miraculous solutions. Remember that closely following the procedures ensures everything is done legally and contributes to a smoother process.

If there are specific doubts, it is advisable to consult official sources or seek help from professionals specialized in immigration, always in a careful and well-informed manner.
