  7. Editor’s note

    The job title on your offer matters more than you think

    Green Card is approved for specialty occupations, roles that require a specific degree. Titles like "software engineer" and "software developer" map cleanly to a computer-science or related degree, so those cases clear most easily. Vaguer titles draw more scrutiny. If an offer lists you as an "analyst," a "consultant," or a generic "engineer," ask how the role will be classified: the SOC code the employer files under is what the government weighs against your degree.

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.

Green Card Sponsors for Structural Engineers: Frequently Asked Questions

Which companies sponsor the most green cards for Structural Engineers?

WSP sponsors the most, with 141 Green Card approvals in the last year, followed by Thornton Tomasetti (12) and Arcadis (22). Across the 10 companies on this list, Migrate Mate tracks 236 Green Card approvals in total, based on the latest published U.S. government disclosure data.

Who qualifies for Green Card sponsorship?

Structural Engineers typically qualify for Green Card sponsorship under the EB-2 or EB-3 employment-based categories. EB-2 requires an advanced degree or demonstrated exceptional ability in the field. EB-3 skilled worker classification requires at least two years of experience or training, with no minimum degree requirement. In both cases, the employer must first complete a PERM labor certification through the Department of Labor before filing the immigrant petition with USCIS.

Can employers sponsor structural engineers for green cards?

Yes. Employers most often sponsor structural engineers 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?

Securing Green Card sponsorship from a top engineering sponsor starts with landing a full-time offer in a qualifying Structural Engineer role. The employer then initiates PERM labor certification, a Department of Labor process confirming no qualified U.S. workers are available for the position. After PERM approval, the employer files an immigrant petition with USCIS. Candidates from countries with per-country backlogs, particularly India and China, may face extended priority date wait times before reaching the final green card stage.
