Does the same job title after a sale establish the same TN case?

THE DIRECT ANSWER

No. Review actual duties, employer and relevant changed facts.

Compare the real work

A retained title can coexist with a different assignment. Identify the professional activity actually proposed rather than treating the title as conclusive.

Where line-management duties are substantial, raise directly with the employer whether the position can be restructured to keep advisory work as the core function, with any operational involvement kept limited and clearly secondary. An employer letter that spends its length on salary, benefits and relocation while describing duties in a sentence leaves the central question unanswered. Each needs a complete file of their own: a detailed employer letter naming the profession and the specific duties, proof of citizenship, and credential evidence in the form that profession's listing accepts. Before the employer finalizes its support letter, match the real assignment to a profession listed under USMCA and verify that profession’s precise degree, licence, or experience rule. A broad title may cover work that is outside the listed profession, so the useful record is a duties list signed by the person who will direct the work, not a vacancy advertisement.
