  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.

Medical Device Green Card Sponsors: Frequently Asked Questions

Which medical device companies sponsor the most green cards?

Medtronic sponsors the most, with 112 Green Card approvals in the last year, followed by Cepheid (84) and Boston Scientific (75). Across the 10 medical device companies on this list, Migrate Mate tracks 543 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 typically requires qualifying under EB-2 or EB-3 immigrant categories. 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, with no degree minimum. In both cases, the employer must complete the PERM labor certification process through the Department of Labor before filing an I-140 immigrant petition with USCIS, confirming 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 medical device employer, secure a permanent full-time position in a qualifying role, then ask your employer to initiate the PERM labor certification process with the Department of Labor. Once PERM is certified, the employer files an I-140 immigrant petition with USCIS establishing your immigrant category and priority date. Depending on your country of birth, you may wait for a priority date to become current before filing for adjustment of status or consular processing to obtain lawful permanent residence.
