What extra costs can a remote worksite create?

THE DIRECT ANSWER

Ask about travel, accommodation and reimbursement for the actual assignment. Separate those terms from immigration charges. A client-site allowance may have conditions that differ from ordinary relocation support; obtain the policy before budgeting it as guaranteed household income.

Confirm which party reimburses the expense

Identify whether the employer or client pays and who must approve spending. Record any limits or receipt requirements. A contract between companies may not give the worker a direct reimbursement right, so obtain the terms applicable to the applicant.

A quoted premium does not show whether a policy covers the intended circumstances or all family members. Document stipends, housing, expense reimbursement and other benefits, if offered. The budgeting mistake is spending heavily on secrecy mechanics before confirming that the underlying duties and credentials fit TN. Canadians may generally use port-of-entry processing or an employer-filed Form I-129, which should be selected before estimating official costs. Ask the hospital in writing which of these it will cover and whether reimbursement is conditional on a period of service.

Ask the institution to state what it actually pays or provides and any conditions. The recurring cost is the health-care certification and state licence, not the immigration fee.
