@ Dimple2001 . I have a CMA qualification from Canada
The NAFTA list specifies that for accountants we have to have CMA as one of the designation recognized for TN Visa.
It does not specify any requirements about bachelors degree for CMA holders does this mean that CMA should be sufficient for a professional to be considered for TN Visa?
PratikKothari sir, do not get too much ahead of yourself. You have applied for immigration to Canada yet?
You have not arrived in Canada or become a PR and you are debating TN visa for which you have to become a citizen first. Who knows what the rules might be by then?

1. Some companies ask the 2 questions to filter out candidates and some to know what they are getting into if they make you an offer. Hopefully, the latter applies than the former. Yes, you should answer truthfully as the truth will come out eventually even if you answer incorrectly.
2. Many companies do hire Canadians on TN; hence many are aware. So, in my opinion, a Cdn or US address would not make a difference. However, if you are not a local candidate (within commuting distance), and if they are looking for a local candidate, you'd not be considered. For example, a candidate from Toledo applying for a position in Detroit is not a local candidate; however, a candidate from Windsor would be (strictly by distance).
3. Do not mention anything. If they are interested in you, they will go ahead with you.
4. Recruiters are always a hit or miss. They don't work for you and therefore their attitude will reflect that unless they are interested in your application. A few however are pretty good and tend to be in contact through social media.
Absolutely correct. Just apply to any job that interests you. Most hiring managers should be aware that getting a TN visa is really not that difficult. If it is a very small company and someone doesn't have heard about TN Visa, you can explain the process.
Most California recruiters should be well aware of this. The state of Michigan is also full of TN Visa holders.

Regarding your original question on qualifications, I am not sure since the adjudication is entirely at the discretion of the USCIS officer who is reviewing the application.
Regarding your interest in the query for info, yes, info is key; however, in your case, if you are not a PR of Canada, assuming everything works out per timeline, you are looking at a time period of at least 4 to 6 years in the future. While TN has remained fairly stable for the past several years, political situations tend to change, and you might be receiving info today on what might be obsolete down the road.
General info is available on the web via several attorneys' web site or via USCIS.
