Hi,

I am thinking of taking a job at a startup that pays in stock as compensation untill the company gets funding. Is it possible to get a TN with this employement letter? Or is only cash expected as a payment method. The company is real, it is just that it will take 3-4 months to get funding and setup. The company has already been formed with tax id and employer id, although just recently..

Thanks
 
The compensation will have to be mentionned in the TN letter. It will then be up tp the CBP officer. You would want to carry with you as much documentation of the company's solvency that you can. It would be important to make clear that you would not be a primary shareholder in this company, as this would be tatntamount to self-sponsorship, which is not permitted.
