Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding E-3 Visa Sponsorship as an Executive Assistant
Frame your degree for specialty occupation
EA roles face scrutiny under the specialty occupation standard. Your application is stronger when your bachelor's degree is in business administration, communications, or a field directly tied to the role's scope. A general degree with unrelated coursework can trigger an LCA complication.
Target companies with existing E-3 history
Employers who have sponsored E-3 visas before already understand the LCA process and won't treat your nationality as a liability. Prioritize mid-to-large organizations in finance, consulting, and tech where EA roles routinely support C-suite executives.
Negotiate the offer before LCA filing begins
The LCA locks in your wage level and job title with the DOL before your visa application. Clarify your title, salary, and work location with your employer before that filing starts, because corrections after certification create delays.
Address dual intent directly with your employer
The E-3 is a nonimmigrant visa, so you must demonstrate intent to return to Australia. Some HR teams misunderstand this and assume it limits long-term retention. Clarifying that the visa renews indefinitely often resolves that concern before it stalls your offer.
Use Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service for the paperwork
Once you have a signed offer, use Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service to handle your LCA and visa paperwork end to end. This avoids the common mistake of EA applicants trying to manage DOL and consulate requirements without specialist support.
Prepare your credential documentation before interviews
Australian three-year bachelor's degrees are generally accepted as equivalent to U.S. four-year degrees, but have your transcripts ready and be prepared to explain your qualification structure if a U.S. HR team questions it during the sponsorship review.
E-3 Visa Executive Assistant: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I find Executive 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 end up applying to roles where the employer has no sponsorship experience. Migrate Mate surfaces EA positions at employers who understand the E-3 process, saving you time on applications that were never going to lead anywhere.
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 Executive Assistant role qualify as a specialty occupation for the E-3?
It depends on how the role is defined. A general administrative assistant role likely won't qualify, but a senior EA position supporting C-suite executives, requiring a bachelor's degree in business administration or communications, typically meets the specialty occupation standard. The job description and your degree field need to align clearly. Employers sometimes need guidance on how to frame the role correctly in the LCA filing.
How does the E-3 compare to the H-1B for Executive Assistant roles?
The E-3 is available only to Australian citizens but has no lottery and no annual cap, so you can apply any time of year once you have a job offer. The H-1B visa has an 85,000-slot annual cap with a randomized lottery, meaning most applicants don't get selected regardless of qualification. For Australians in EA roles, the E-3 is a far more predictable path than entering the H-1B lottery.
Can I change employers on the E-3 if a better Executive Assistant role comes up?
Yes, but you need to restart the process with the new employer. Your current E-3 visa is tied to your existing employer's LCA, so the new employer must file a fresh LCA with the DOL and you'll need to attend a new consulate appointment. There's no transfer mechanism like H-1B portability. Plan for a gap of several weeks between roles and confirm timing with your new employer before resigning.
