Benefits alone do not establish TN eligibility. The assessment concerns Canadian or Mexican citizenship, qualifying prearranged professional work, the listed profession’s credentials and temporary entry. If benefits reflect a continuing Canadian employment relationship, describe that arrangement accurately for counsel’s review.
Explain the employment relationship behind the benefits
A plan may continue coverage after employment ends, or an employer may retain the person under a secondment. Those are different facts. Provide the agreement and plan explanation rather than using continued insurance as proof that a particular employer relationship or immigration arrangement exists.
The Management Consultant entry has an experience alternative to the listed degree route. Identify the listed TN profession and actual duties, then review its exact credential requirements and permitted alternatives. The Appendix 2 entry for Engineer reads baccalaureate or licenciatura degree, or state or provincial licence. If the position is a sales territory with agronomic advice as a tool, it is not a listed profession and TN does not fit. Where a position mixes the two, the file must show that the professional work dominates, and the cleanest evidence is the employer's own written answer to a direct question about what the agronomist produces and how performance is measured.
