      @khangaroofinance 2 місяці тому

      Hey thanks for the comment, I’ve heard that there has not been a solid determination on HSAs and bringing them back to Canada, and it’s a bit of a grey area / tricky from a tax point of view. I can’t remember if I covered it in the video, but i don’t contribute to my HSA despite having a match for this reason. Ofc this depends heavily on your long term plan of where you’ll be, so if you have a good match it might be worth it to contribute.

I have no experience with the h1b but for TN; I’ve heard many companies will help with the visa, if the company is small enough they might require you to do your own legal processes. You can reach out to a lawyer that can help you with further questions, you can get a consult for a couple hundred for half an hour. I would also google “tn visa laywer” or “Canadian USA visa lawyer” something along those lines.
