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 H-1B sponsorship works
H-1B sponsorship starts with the employer, not the candidate. Once you have a job offer, the employer's immigration counsel files a Labor Condition Application with the Department of Labor, certifying that the role is a specialty occupation and that the offered wage meets the prevailing wage for the location. After the LCA is certified, the employer files Form I-129 with USCIS. Most H-1B petitions go through an annual lottery. The selection rules and the filing costs have both changed recently, so check where things stand before you plan around either.

Which medical device companies sponsor the most H-1B visas?
Genentech sponsors the most, with 48 H-1B approvals in the last year, followed by Medtronic (44) and Boston Scientific (20). Across the 10 medical device companies on this list, Migrate Mate tracks 213 H-1B approvals in total, based on the latest published U.S. government disclosure data.
Who qualifies for H-1B sponsorship?
H-1B sponsorship requires a job offer in a specialty occupation, defined as a role that normally requires at least a bachelor's degree in a directly related field. The degree must align specifically with the position, not just any bachelor's degree. Candidates in engineering, software development, regulatory affairs, clinical science, and data analysis typically satisfy this standard. The sponsoring employer files the petition and bears responsibility for demonstrating that the role qualifies.
How much does it cost a company to sponsor an H-1B visa?
The employer pays the government filing fees, not the candidate. Base statutory fees run from a few hundred to several thousand dollars depending on employer size and processing speed, plus legal costs. Recent policy changes have added significant fees for some petitions and the amounts have been in flux, so check the current figure before you rely on it.
How do I get H-1B sponsorship from a top sponsor?
Start by targeting employers with a documented history of H-1B filings in your field, then apply for roles that match your degree and specialty. Once you receive a job offer, your employer files a Labor Condition Application with the Department of Labor and then submits an I-129 petition to USCIS on your behalf. H-1B is subject to an annual cap and selection process, and the rules and costs have changed recently, so review the current requirements before your employer files.
