  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.

Electronics and Hardware Green Card Sponsors: Frequently Asked Questions

Which electronics and hardware companies sponsor the most green cards?

Intel sponsors the most, with 989 Green Card approvals in the last year, followed by Apple (575) and Applied Materials (282). Across the 10 electronics and hardware companies on this list, Migrate Mate tracks 2,406 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 employment requires an employer willing to sponsor and a role that meets EB-2 or EB-3 criteria. EB-2 requires an advanced degree or demonstrated exceptional ability in your field. EB-3 skilled worker requires at least two years of relevant experience and a permanent full-time job offer. Most cases require PERM labor certification, in which the employer documents that no qualified U.S. worker is 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?

Start by securing a full-time offer with an employer willing to sponsor permanent residence. The employer typically initiates PERM labor certification with the Department of Labor, documenting a good-faith recruitment effort. Once PERM is certified, the employer files an I-140 immigrant petition with USCIS establishing your eligibility category. After I-140 approval, you wait for your priority date to become current, then apply for adjustment of status if already in the United States or complete consular processing abroad. Per-country backlogs apply.
