Would it be better to not put a start date on the offer letter and I129 and just indicate that employment will commence upon TN status approval.

My current TN is good till September and the new employment can commence any time

Thoughts?
 
Personally I would never leave any room for ambiguity. Not having a specific start date may end up being counter productive. This is my opinion only.
 
Putting a start date buy itself, implies an end date. You could see your self with a seven-month TN.

Best to put no start date, IMO, and say one year.
 
The last TN I did by mail in 2006 was for a start date of July 1, 2006 in the letter. They did not approve it until October 27, 2006 and the expiration was October 26, 2007. So they can or may push it out for a year regardless of the start and end date of the letter.

wow, and the job was still there when the TN came? What did you/they do in the meantime.

If this was an extension (which is not the subject of this thread) then the date should simply have been one year after the old TN expired.
 
Transferred from one company to the other - same owner.

Sent in the I129 for new employment in July. Sent in the extension request for the existing TN in August. The extension TN showed up October 15 and the new TN for the second company showed up two days later.

You lucky son-of-a-gun:D...I also wondered how the heck you pulled that off.

In my case, company lawyer mailed my i-129 this week for premium processing and I have my fingers crossed hoping that my filing DS230 for DV will not trip my new TN request.
