Hi proberts! Thanks for doing this.

I'm a Canadian on a TN visa at a startup in the US. Would it be possible to continue to work for this company on this status but stay in Canada?

Is there a minimum amount of time I need to spend in the US or can I just fly in for occasional onsite meetings?

Not a or the lawyer but I'm pretty sure the answer is yes because I was in that status. I lived in Canada and I held a TN so I'd be able to occasionally travel and work in the US when needed.

Thanks for the reply, I suspected that was the case. Was your payroll done in the US or Canada?

Canada. I'm not sure that matters for TN purposes but most companies would want to do that to make sure they comply with Canadian employment laws (unless you're a contractor I guess?).
