TN-1 Visa Job Title Qualifications

Hello David;       I am a seasoned computer professional and I am currently entertaining an exciting opportunity with a company in the U.S. Since I am a Canadian citizen, I would require a work visa to do so.       The H1B for 2006 have long since been exhausted so then there is the TN-1 Visa.       Would Computer Operations Supervisor be eligible for a TN-1 Visa or does the term "Supervisor" negate the eligibility requirements of a TN-1 Visa?        I heard that "management" in the computing profession must obtain an H1B visa to be legally entitled to work in the U.S.       Your advice is most welcome.   Cheers,

As described, you need an H1 visa.  The 'only' computer TN visa possible is as a 'computer systems analyst' which does not have any supervisory role to it.

You are going to have to get in line for an H1B visa.
