You previously answered me that getting H1B without a degree is a thing, but one has to have their work history well documented. Could you please expand on what involves? What if the companies someone worked at no longer exist? Thanks

[proberts]

That makes it tougher of course but letters from former colleagues or supervisors also can do the trick along with other evidence such as offer letters, employment agreements, and pay records.

Does the same apply for TN1?

[proberts]

No. The TN while easier in many ways is less flexible regarding alternative requirements; for nearly all TN occupations, an actual bachelor's degree, not the equivalent based on education and/or experience, is required.

I went through this myself when joining a FAANG. A few of the companies I worked for don't exist, but I kept the original job offers, anything outlining the job duties, a post employment recommendation / HR letter and various things like that. The immigration lawyers had a different company that assessed the work experience to the standard of a university degree with a letter of recommendation.
