Hello:
I've been working in the US since Oct. 2005. In Oct. 2006, I renewed my TN Visa at the Canadian board (I'm a Canadian national) for a new employer and was given the visa right away. Unfortunately, three months ago, my employer told me that funding had become difficult and they couldn't keep me beyond the end of February.
I looked around and found a job asap with UCLA. I was told by a lawyer I consulted with that more than one employer can sign the TN Visa. So, UCLA hired me.
Today, Payroll told me that they had made a mistake and they don't think that it's that easy even though I've been working there for almost three weeks. Now, I'm not sure what to do. My employer is very supportive, but what do I do?

-- Your question is not clear. What mistake did the payroll make? what is not that easy? Please clarify so that I can attempt to answer your question..
my question is how do I get my tn visa transferred to ucla as my new employer? what is the quickest/easiest thing to do?

Either go to the border with your offer letter to get the TN for UCLA (quickest way) or you can apply by mail, which takes long time for normal processing. If you want to apply by mail and want to have quick response (within 2 weeks), you have to pay $1000 for the premium processing fee.
Go to the Border with the paperwork from UCLA. You should get another TN with 1 Year I-94 with UCLA on it..

We will find a way or we will make one
