  7. Editor’s note

    What a high approval count does and doesn't tell you

    A high approval count tells you an employer has the process, the lawyers, and the budget to sponsor. It does not tell you your odds for your specific role: a company with hundreds of engineering approvals may never have filed for a marketing hire. Two things this data cannot tell you are who covers the filing fees and how quickly a company moves. Neither is public, so ask both when you get to the offer.

How Green Card sponsorship works

Green Card sponsorship starts with the employer. Once you have an offer, the employer works with immigration counsel to file the required labor certification and petition with USCIS on your behalf.

Construction and Real Estate Green Card Sponsors: Frequently Asked Questions

Which construction and real estate companies sponsor the most green cards?

Zillow sponsors the most, with 90 Green Card approvals in the last year, followed by CBRE (53) and DPR Construction (19). Across the 10 construction and real estate companies on this list, Migrate Mate tracks 218 Green Card approvals in total, based on the latest published U.S. government disclosure data.

Who qualifies for Green Card sponsorship?

Green card sponsorship through an employer requires the candidate to qualify under an employment-based immigrant category. EB-3 skilled worker applies to roles requiring at least two years of training or experience, with no degree minimum. EB-2 requires an advanced degree or demonstrated exceptional ability in the field. Both categories require the employer to complete PERM labor certification first, showing no qualified U.S. workers are available for the role.

How much does it cost a company to sponsor a green card?

For an employment-based green card, the employer generally covers the PERM labor certification and the I-140 petition, which run into several thousand dollars plus legal fees; some later steps can fall to the employee. Government fees change periodically, so check the current figures before you rely on them.

How do I get Green Card sponsorship from a top sponsor?

To pursue green card sponsorship from a construction or real estate employer, start by securing a full-time permanent job offer in a qualifying role. The employer then files a PERM labor certification with the Department of Labor to document the labor market test. Once certified, the employer files an I-129 petition with USCIS on your behalf. Candidates from countries with per-country backlogs, including India and China, may face extended priority date waiting periods before the process concludes.
