Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding E-3 Visa Sponsorship as a Chief Of Staff
Frame your degree for specialty occupation
Chief of Staff roles can face scrutiny under the specialty occupation test if the job description is too broad. Make sure your Australian degree in business, public policy, or a related field is explicitly mapped to the responsibilities in your offer letter.
Target companies with existing LCA filings
U.S. employers who have previously filed Labor Condition Applications are already familiar with the E-3 process. Search DOL's Office of Foreign Labor Certification disclosure data to identify organizations that have sponsored similar executive or strategy roles.
Prepare your credential equivalency documentation early
Australian three-year bachelor's degrees are generally accepted as equivalent to U.S. four-year degrees, but your employer's legal team may request a credential evaluation. Have a certified evaluation ready before negotiations reach the offer stage.
Use Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service for the LCA and paperwork
Once you have an offer, the employer must file an LCA with DOL before your consulate appointment can proceed. Use Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service to manage the LCA certification, visa documents, and consulate preparation in one coordinated process.
Negotiate who covers government filing fees
The E-3 requires a certified LCA and a consular visa application fee. Unlike H-1B, the E-3 has no lottery or USCIS petition filing for consular applicants, so total costs are lower. Confirm in writing which fees your employer will cover before signing your offer.
Clarify your visa status at each renewal cycle
Chief of Staff responsibilities often evolve significantly over two-year periods. When you renew your E-3, the LCA must still accurately reflect your current duties and prevailing wage level, so update your job description with your employer before each renewal filing.

Find Chief Of Staff JobsChief Of Staff E-3 Visa: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I find Chief of Staff jobs with E-3 visa sponsorship?
Migrate Mate is built specifically for Australian professionals seeking U.S. roles that support E-3 sponsorship. You can filter Chief of Staff listings by employers who are familiar with the E-3 process, saving the time you'd otherwise spend educating hiring teams about the visa from scratch.
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 a Chief of Staff role qualify as a specialty occupation for the E-3?
A Chief of Staff position qualifies when the role genuinely requires a bachelor's degree or higher in a specific field such as business administration, organizational management, or public policy. Broad executive coordinator roles without a defined degree requirement can fail the specialty occupation test, so the offer letter must tie specific duties to a theoretical and practical body of knowledge.
How does the E-3 compare to the H-1B for Chief of Staff roles?
The E-3 has no annual cap and no lottery, so you can apply at any point in the year once you have a job offer. H-1B registration opens once a year in March and is subject to a random selection process. For Australian nationals in Chief of Staff roles, the E-3 is a faster and more predictable path with comparable specialty occupation requirements.
Can I change employers or get promoted while on an E-3?
Changing employers requires your new employer to file a fresh LCA and you'll need a new E-3 visa stamp before returning to the U.S. if you travel internationally. A significant promotion that changes your job title, duties, or location may also require a new LCA to reflect updated prevailing wage levels, so coordinate with your employer's HR team before any role change takes effect.
