A TN visa allows Canadian and Mexican citizens to get a temporary work visa to the US. It does not have a minimum wage requirement and so can be used to suppress wages and indeed it has been noticed that that is the case with positions like “System Analyst”.
I can’t seem to find statistics on the number of TN visas issued but the process is quite simple: you gather your documents and head to the border and apply for a visa there. No appointment needed and not even a lawyer (you can get one if you want). A lot of Canadians seem to be getting that and quite ironically blaming immigration to Canada in the process on why they are getting a TN. (lol)
So I wonder why is TN visa not considered wage suppression? H1B at least has a minimum wage requirement.
