AI Companies H-1B Sponsors: Frequently Asked Questions

Which AI companies sponsor the most H-1B visas?

Scale AI has the most, with 79 live H-1B jobs on Migrate Mate, followed by Photon (79) and Nuro (58). Across the 10 AI companies on this list, Migrate Mate is tracking 485 live H-1B jobs, updated daily.

Who qualifies for H-1B sponsorship?

H-1B eligibility requires a job offer from a U.S. employer in a specialty occupation, meaning the role requires at least a bachelor's degree in a directly related field. You must hold that degree or its equivalent. The employer files a Labor Condition Application with the Department of Labor and an I-129 petition with USCIS on your behalf. H-1B status allows dual intent, so you can pursue a green card while authorized to work.

How much does H-1B sponsorship cost?

The employer pays the required government fees, not the candidate. Base fees run from a few hundred to several thousand dollars depending on the employer and processing speed, plus legal costs. Recent policy changes have added significant fees for some filings and the amounts have been in flux, so check the current figure before you rely on it.

How do I get H-1B sponsorship from a top sponsor?

To get H-1B sponsorship, secure a job offer from an employer willing to sponsor the visa. The employer first files a Labor Condition Application with the Department of Labor, certifying the role meets prevailing wage and working condition requirements. They then file an I-129 petition with USCIS on your behalf. Because H-1B is subject to an annual cap and lottery, the selection rules and associated costs have changed recently, so review the current position before planning your timeline.
