H-1B Visa Private Duty Nurse Jobs
Private Duty Nurse jobs with H-1B visa sponsorship require employers to file a certified Labor Condition Application for each worksite before your I-129 petition reaches USCIS. Because private duty assignments often shift between client homes, confirming that your sponsoring employer has the right LCA coverage in place is essential before you accept any offer.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding H-1B Visa Sponsorship as a Private Duty Nurse
Verify your nursing credentials qualify
Private duty nursing typically requires a BSN or higher, which satisfies the specialty occupation requirement for H-1B purposes. Confirm your foreign nursing degree is evaluated by a credential assessment agency before your employer files, since USCIS will scrutinize the degree-to-role match.
Check each worksite's LCA coverage
Each client home or care facility where you work needs its own certified LCA listing that address. Ask your sponsoring employer exactly which worksites are covered before signing a contract, so there are no gaps when USCIS reviews the petition.
Target agencies with multi-state H-1B history
Use Migrate Mate to find home health and private duty nursing agencies that have consistently filed H-1B petitions across multiple states, so you can prioritize employers already familiar with the LCA process for changing care assignments.
Confirm the prevailing wage tier before accepting
Run the OFLC Wage Search for the specific SOC code and county where your primary worksite falls. Private duty roles often map to a lower wage tier than hospital nursing, so confirming the prevailing wage early prevents surprises during the LCA certification step.
Request premium processing before your start date
If your current work authorization is expiring, ask your employer to file Form I-907 alongside the I-129 petition. USCIS targets a 15-business-day adjudication window under premium processing, which matters when a client's care schedule cannot wait on standard timelines.
Clarify H-1B portability rules when switching clients
Moving from one private duty agency to another while your extension is pending is governed by AC21 portability rules. USCIS requires the new employer to file a new I-129 and your original petition to have been pending for at least 180 days before you can transfer without interrupting status.
H-1B Visa Private Duty Nurse: Frequently Asked Questions
Does private duty nursing qualify as a specialty occupation for H-1B purposes?
Yes, when the role requires a BSN or higher in a directly related nursing field. Because private duty nurses deliver clinical assessments, medication management, and care plan oversight that formally require a bachelor's degree, USCIS generally recognizes the position as a specialty occupation. Your employer should document the degree requirement explicitly in the job description and LCA filing.
How does H-1B sponsorship work when my clients are at different home addresses?
Each worksite needs its own certified Labor Condition Application. If you rotate between client homes in different counties or states, your employer must file separate LCAs covering each location before you work there. A single LCA tied to the agency's office address does not satisfy the requirement for work performed at client residences.
How do I find private duty nursing employers who sponsor H-1B visas?
Search Migrate Mate for private duty and home health employers with verified H-1B LCA filing history. This lets you filter out agencies that have never sponsored the visa and focus your applications on employers already familiar with the certification and petition process, which reduces delays from your first conversation onward.
Can my H-1B status cover me for the full duration of a long-term private duty assignment?
H-1B status is approved in three-year increments and can be extended once for a maximum of six years total under standard rules. Your employer must file an extension petition before the current period expires. If you're pursuing a green card through the same employer, extensions beyond six years may be available under AC21 rules.
What happens to my H-1B status if my private duty client's care ends unexpectedly?
You have a 60-day grace period after your employment ends to find a new H-1B sponsor, change status, or depart. Your current employer is also required to pay for your return transportation to your home country if they terminate the relationship. Use that window to identify a new sponsoring agency quickly, since the grace period cannot be extended.
