Yes, TN visa is extremely easy to acquire and one can have multiple TN visas at the same time to work for multiple employers. This is especially relevant to nurses who technically need a visa for each hospital they work at. I am currently on a TN and have had 5 in as many years as I jumped around employers. Each new one requires re-entering the US. One time I flew in from Brazil and got it at Houston when I landed. I have never been denied and happy to answer any questions. When applying, I would say it depends. For startups, it was mostly a casual conversation where I walked them through the process. For smaller places, I wouldn't say you need sponsorship until you talk with a human because no lawyers need to be involved. For large multinational companies, they probably deal with TN all the time so no problem there. EDIT: "Extremely easy to acquire" is doing a lot of heavy lifting. One has to have the professional credentials as required by NAFTA and a job offer in hand. I assume you have both of those things before looking to apply for a TN.
