Tips for Finding E-3 Visa Sponsorship as an Accounting Assistant

Certify your Australian degree equivalency early

U.S. employers need confirmation that your Australian three-year bachelor's degree meets the specialty occupation standard. Get a credential evaluation from a NACES-approved evaluator before you start applying so it's ready when an employer asks.

Target employers who already file LCAs

Search the DOL's public LCA disclosure data for companies that have previously filed for accounting roles. Firms with active LCA history understand the process and are far less likely to withdraw an offer once they see the E-3 visa paperwork involved.

Clarify the specialty occupation case for your role

Not every Accounting Assistant position qualifies. The job description must require a specific accounting or finance degree, not just any bachelor's. Ask hiring managers to confirm the posted role has degree requirements before investing time in the interview process.

Start the LCA filing immediately after your offer

The DOL must certify your Labor Condition Application before you can schedule your consulate appointment. Use Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service to handle your LCA and visa paperwork so nothing stalls between your offer letter and your start date.

Prepare your E-3 packet for the consulate interview

Your consulate interview requires the certified LCA, your employer's support letter, degree transcripts, and DS-160 confirmation. Accounting roles often get questions about the specialty occupation basis, so bring documentation linking your degree field to the specific job duties.

Understand E-3 renewal timing with your employer

E-3 status is granted in two-year increments and requires employer action each cycle. Confirm before accepting an offer that your employer will support renewals, since a change in management or company restructuring can interrupt your status if the process isn't planned in advance.

E-3 Visa Accounting Assistant: Frequently Asked Questions

How do I find Accounting Assistant jobs that offer E-3 visa sponsorship?

Migrate Mate is built specifically for Australian professionals searching for U.S. roles with E-3 sponsorship. Standard job boards don't filter by visa type, so you'd otherwise need to cold-apply and ask each employer individually. Migrate Mate surfaces roles where sponsorship is already part of the hiring conversation, saving significant time in your search.

How much does it cost to get an E-3 visa?

Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service covers the entire process for $499, including the Labor Condition Application, visa document preparation, and consulate appointment guidance. Traditional immigration lawyers charge $2,000–$5,000+ for the same work. The E-3 has less paperwork than most work visas, so paying thousands for legal help is usually unnecessary.

Does an Accounting Assistant role qualify as a specialty occupation for the E-3?

It can, but the job description matters. The position must specifically require a bachelor's degree in accounting, finance, or a closely related field. A role that accepts any degree or lists the degree as preferred rather than required won't qualify. Ask the employer to confirm the degree requirement is in their official job specification before you begin the E-3 process.

How does the E-3 compare to the H-1B for Accounting Assistant roles?

The E-3 has a clear advantage for Australians: there's no annual lottery, no random selection, and no annual cap pressure that affects H-1B visa applicants. You apply directly once you have a qualifying job offer and a certified LCA. H-1B requires registration in a lottery each April, with no guarantee of selection regardless of your qualifications or the employer's urgency to hire you.

Can I change employers while on an E-3 as an Accounting Assistant?

Yes, but you need to restart the process with the new employer. The E-3 is employer-specific, so your current approval doesn't transfer. Your new employer must file a fresh LCA with the DOL and you'll need to attend a new consulate appointment. You don't accumulate any portability rights the way some other visa categories allow, so plan the transition timeline accordingly.
