I am a Canadian living/working here in the US under TN for the last 20 years. First 10 years was W2 .. but Wall Street insisted on Corp-to-Corp payment. So I setup an S-Corp and have paid myself through the S-Corp last 10 years.
Now while filing my I-140 the lawyer asked me for my W2's and Tax Returns and PayStubs for last 2 years. She was a bit surprised that my W2/Stubs/Returns listed my own corporation ... and not my TN sponsor.
I have never sponsored myself ... in that my S-Corp is never my TN sponsor. My sponsor is always the company for which I am providing services (usually a multi-million dollar consulting firm).
So my TN is for "Company A" ... who pays my personal "S-Corp X" ... who pays me personally ... usually through a mix of W2 income and K1 dividend. I always thought of Corp-to-Corp as an accounting thing only.
So do I have any reason to worry about my I-140 filing or my I-485 filing? Should I send in my tax returns without worrying that my W2/K1 does not match my TN Sponsor company name?
Nelsona, do you know of other Canadians that have done the I-140 and I-485 under my conditions and succeeded?
