TN
That U.S. opportunity is worth a conversation. Explore professional work through the TN pathway.
For applicants in Kelowna, the starting document may be an employment offer, a corporate transfer proposal, an equipment lease or an investor agreement. Each creates different rights. Begin by identifying who will employ you, what you will own, and which obligations become binding before an immigration decision. This overview covers professional work, company transfers and investor routes without assuming every household should pursue the same path.

ready for what’s next.
Consider TN for qualifying Canadian or Mexican professionals; L-1A for qualifying managerial or executive transfers; L-1B for qualifying specialized-knowledge transfers; E-2 for eligible treaty investors; and EB-5 or the current Gold Card framework for distinct immigrant plans. Citizenship, employment history, enterprise structure and the proposed activity determine which comparison is useful.
Choose what brings you here. Leave with a short list of things to discuss—not another long form to fill out.
Compensation may include rights beyond a salary.

Review the documents that allocate control. An equity grant can affect the professional employer relationship; a customer contract can reveal who supervises a transferred worker; a lease can show whether a business has operating capacity. Make those facts visible before a summary letter reduces the proposal to a job title or dollar amount.
Meet the people in your cornerPersonal support.
A practical plan.
No promises we can’t keep.
Find the signed agreement and distinguish effective obligations from options, conditions and draft language.
Record ownership, voting power, supervision and the person who can approve changes to the proposed work.
Assess nationality, qualifications, foreign service or capital against the particular route being considered.
Before relying on earlier advice, disclose changes to rights, funding, staffing and intended family activity.
Bring the version of the proposal you are actually considering, including terms still being negotiated. An immigration assessment can identify consequences of the arrangement while business, employment and tax advisers address their own parts. Keep a record of changes so advice based on an earlier draft is not mistaken for a review of the final agreement.
Find your pathwayA useful initial discussion names the decision you need to make and the evidence available to make it. Confirm the adviser’s scope and fee, then share relevant records through the agreed process. Bring the final agreements and identify any earlier advice based on terms that have since changed.
Let’s connectArrange a remote consultation to discuss your next steps.
Residence helps identify your practical starting point, but the federal category’s requirements depend on facts such as citizenship, the role and the enterprise. Do not substitute a Canadian address for the citizenship a category requires.
An employer can make contractual commitments, but the relevant authorities decide the immigration application and admission. Clarify which offer obligations depend on obtaining the necessary permission.
Have the proposed obligations reviewed early enough to understand their consequences. Investment categories involve real commitments, but a signature made without understanding the transaction does not ensure eligibility.
Permission differs by classification and family role. List the actual work each person intends to perform, and establish the applicable status and evidence before relying on a proposed start date.
