Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding E-3 Visa Sponsorship as a Fund Accountant
Credential your Australian degree for U.S. hiring managers
A three-year Australian bachelor's in accounting is generally accepted as equivalent to a U.S. four-year degree for E-3 purposes, but some employers need confirmation. Get a credential evaluation letter ready before applying so hiring managers don't stall on qualification questions.
Target fund administrators and custodian banks first
State Street, BNY Mellon, and similar custodian banks file LCAs regularly for Fund Accountant roles and have established E-3 sponsorship workflows. Starting with employers who already know the process shortens your time from offer to start date significantly.
Use Migrate Mate to find E-3 sponsoring employers
Searching for Fund Accountant roles with confirmed E-3 sponsorship history is faster through Migrate Mate, which filters positions by visa type. Avoid applying broadly and discovering late in the process that a firm hasn't sponsored before.
Clarify fund valuation scope during offer negotiations
The E-3 LCA ties your role description to specific duties. If your offer letter says 'Fund Accountant' but your day-to-day includes investor reporting or shadow NAV, get that scope documented clearly so the LCA accurately reflects the specialty occupation.
Confirm your employer has filed the LCA before resigning
The DOL must certify the LCA before you can attend your consulate appointment. Don't give notice at your current job until you have written confirmation the LCA has been filed, since FLAG portal processing typically takes seven business days.
Handle LCA and visa paperwork through a filing service
Employer HR teams unfamiliar with the E-3 process often delay or misfiled LCA documentation. Use Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service to manage the LCA submission, visa application prep, and consulate appointment coordination from offer acceptance to approval.

Find Fund Accountant JobsFund Accountant E-3 Visa: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I find Fund Accountant jobs with E-3 visa sponsorship?
Search for Fund Accountant roles specifically filtered by E-3 sponsorship history using Migrate Mate. General job boards surface roles without any indication of whether the employer has sponsored E-3 visas before. Targeting fund administrators, prime brokers, and large custodians narrows your search to employers already familiar with the LCA and consulate process.
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 Fund Accountant role qualify as a specialty occupation for the E-3?
Yes. Fund Accountant positions require at minimum a bachelor's degree in accounting, finance, or a closely related field, which satisfies the E-3 specialty occupation standard. The role involves applying specialized knowledge in fund valuation, NAV calculation, and financial reporting, all of which support the degree requirement. Your offer letter and the LCA must both reflect these duties clearly.
How does the E-3 visa compare to the H-1B for Fund Accountant roles?
The E-3 is exclusively available to Australian nationals and has a 10,500-person annual allocation that has never been fully used, meaning there is no lottery and no random selection. The H-1B subjects most applicants to a lottery with roughly a 25% selection rate in recent fiscal years. For qualifying Australians, the E-3 is a direct path, while H-1B is subject to chance.
Can I switch fund accounting employers while on an E-3?
Yes, but the process restarts with each new employer. Your new employer must file a fresh LCA with the DOL and you'll need a new consulate appointment to get a visa stamp reflecting the updated employer. You can begin working for the new employer once the LCA is certified and you've obtained the new visa, so coordinating your resignation timing around LCA processing matters.
