Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding E-3 Visa Sponsorship as a Security Consultant
Verify your degree maps to the role
U.S. consular officers assess whether your Australian qualification directly supports security consulting work. A degree in computer science, information systems, or cybersecurity aligns cleanly. A business degree without a security specialization may require a credential evaluation to establish equivalency.
Target employers with active LCA filing history
Security consulting firms that have filed Labor Condition Applications before understand E-3 mechanics. Focus on federal contractors, Big Four advisory arms, and enterprise IT security firms where international hiring is already part of their HR workflow.
Address clearance eligibility upfront with employers
Many U.S. security consultant roles reference clearance requirements. E-3 holders aren't eligible for U.S. security clearances, so clarify early whether the role requires one. Commercial security and consulting positions without clearance requirements are your primary target.
Use Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service for your LCA and paperwork
Once you have an offer, your employer's LCA must be certified by DOL before your visa interview. Use Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service to handle the LCA submission, DS-160 preparation, and consulate documentation so nothing delays your start date.
Negotiate your offer letter before the LCA is filed
Your LCA locks in your job title, worksite location, and wage level with DOL. If any of those details change after certification, the employer must file an amended LCA. Confirm your title, office location, and compensation structure before the filing begins.
Request the E-3 specifically when discussing visa sponsorship
Many U.S. employers default to H-1B when an international hire mentions visa needs. As an Australian citizen, you're eligible for the E-3, which has no lottery and no cap. Specify the E-3 by name so HR doesn't route you through an H-1B process unnecessarily.

Find Security Consultant JobsSecurity Consultant E-3 Visa: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I find Security Consultant jobs with E-3 visa sponsorship?
Search Migrate Mate to find Security Consultant roles at employers with verified E-3 and LCA filing history. The platform filters for companies that have sponsored Australian professionals before, which saves you from pitching sponsorship to employers who've never navigated the process. Focus on cybersecurity firms, federal contractors, and enterprise advisory teams.
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 Security Consultant role qualify as an E-3 specialty occupation?
Yes, provided the position genuinely requires a bachelor's degree or higher in a specific field such as cybersecurity, information systems, or computer science. If the job posting says a degree is preferred rather than required, or accepts any bachelor's degree regardless of field, the specialty occupation standard may not be met and a consular officer could challenge the application.
How does the E-3 compare to the H-1B for Security Consultant roles?
The E-3 is available only to Australian citizens and has no lottery, no annual cap, and no waiting period to enter the process. H-1B registration opens once per year in March with a randomized selection. For a Security Consultant with a qualifying Australian degree and a U.S. job offer, the E-3 is a direct path where the H-1B is a lottery ticket.
Can I switch Security Consultant employers while on an E-3 visa?
Yes, but your E-3 status is tied to your current employer's LCA. When you change jobs, your new employer must file a fresh LCA with DOL and you'll need to attend a new consulate interview or apply for a change of status. You can't simply transfer your existing E-3. Start the new LCA process before your last day to avoid a gap in authorized work status.
