E-3 Sponsors for PhD Graduates: Frequently Asked Questions

Which companies sponsor the most E-3 visas?

CVS Health has the most, with 429 live E-3 jobs on Migrate Mate, followed by Amazon.com (312) and University of Florida (247). Across the 10 companies on this list, Migrate Mate is tracking 1,930 live E-3 jobs, updated daily.

Who qualifies for E-3 sponsorship?

E-3 visa eligibility requires Australian citizenship, a job offer from a U.S. employer in a specialty occupation, and at least a bachelor's degree in a field directly related to that role. PhD holders satisfy the degree requirement across all qualifying fields. The position must meet prevailing wage standards certified by the Department of Labor through a Labor Condition Application. The annual cap of 10,500 visas has never been exhausted.

How much does E-3 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 E-3 sponsorship from a top sponsor?

Once a U.S. employer extends a job offer, they file a Labor Condition Application with the Department of Labor certifying the role meets prevailing wage and working condition requirements. After the LCA is certified, the Australian applicant applies for the E-3 directly at a U.S. consulate, bringing the LCA, a support letter from the employer, proof of their degree, and a completed visa application form. No USCIS involvement is required for the initial visa.
