Green Card Sponsors for Physical Therapists: Frequently Asked Questions

Which companies sponsor the most green cards for Physical Therapists?

Optum has the most, with 329 live Green Card jobs on Migrate Mate, followed by Atrium Health (260) and Quest Diagnostics (225). Across the 10 companies on this list, Migrate Mate is tracking 1,831 live Green Card jobs, updated daily.

Who qualifies for Green Card sponsorship?

Physical Therapists seeking employer-sponsored lawful permanent residence typically qualify under the EB-2 category if they hold an advanced degree, or under the EB-3 skilled worker category with at least two years of experience and a qualifying job offer. Both pathways generally require the employer to complete PERM labor certification through the Department of Labor before filing with USCIS. Per-country annual limits mean wait times vary significantly by nationality.

Can employers sponsor physical therapists for green cards?

Yes. Employers most often sponsor physical therapists for green cards through the EB-2 and EB-3 categories, which require a PERM labor certification showing no qualified U.S. worker is available for the role. A relevant bachelor's or advanced degree strengthens the case, and the employer files the I-140 petition once PERM is certified.

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

The employer initiates the process by filing a PERM labor certification with the Department of Labor, demonstrating that no qualified U.S. worker is available for the role. Once certified, the employer files an immigrant petition with USCIS on the Physical Therapist's behalf. After the petition is approved and a visa number becomes available based on the applicant's priority date and country of birth, the applicant applies for adjustment of status or an immigrant visa to obtain lawful permanent residence.
