Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding H-1B Visa Sponsorship in Sourcing
Target employers with LCA filing history
Use Migrate Mate to filter sourcing roles by employers who have filed Labor Condition Applications, so you're only pursuing companies with a documented H-1B sponsorship track record in procurement and supply chain roles.
Verify prevailing wage before negotiating offers
Run your target job title, SOC code, and work location through the OFLC Wage Search before salary discussions. Your offered wage must meet the DOL's prevailing wage level for that exact geography, or USCIS will flag the LCA.
Clarify specialty occupation status for hybrid roles
Sourcing titles like Indirect Buyer or Category Coordinator can blur into general purchasing, which USCIS sometimes challenges as not requiring a specialized degree. Document degree-to-duties alignment in your offer letter and request that your employer address it explicitly in the I-129 petition.
Align your start date with H-1B cap timelines
Cap-subject H-1B petitions can only start on October 1 of the fiscal year following lottery selection. If you're on OPT and your cap-gap authorization runs out before October 1, confirm your employer will file for premium processing to secure your status.
Request E-Verify enrollment confirmation early
STEM OPT employers must be E-Verify enrolled, but any employer sponsoring an H-1B must also comply with DOL posting requirements. Confirm E-Verify enrollment before accepting an offer so your I-129 filing isn't delayed by compliance gaps on the employer's side.

Find Sourcing JobsSourcing H-1B Visa: Frequently Asked Questions
Do sourcing and procurement roles qualify as H-1B specialty occupations?
Most sourcing roles qualify when the position requires a bachelor's degree in a specific field such as supply chain management, business, or engineering. Titles like Strategic Sourcing Manager or Category Manager typically meet the threshold. Generic buyer or purchasing clerk roles that accept any degree may face scrutiny, so the employer's job description needs to emphasize the degree requirement clearly.
How do I find sourcing employers who actively sponsor H-1B visas?
Search Migrate Mate to browse sourcing and procurement roles filtered by employers with verified H-1B filing history. This lets you focus your applications on companies that have already navigated the LCA and I-129 process for similar roles, rather than spending time on employers who have never sponsored before.
Can I switch sourcing jobs while on an H-1B without restarting the process?
Yes, H-1B portability under AC21 lets you change employers after your I-129 has been pending for 180 days or more, as long as the new role is in the same or a similar occupational classification. A new sourcing role at a different employer still requires a fresh LCA and I-129, but you can begin working upon filing rather than waiting for approval.
Which degree fields support an H-1B for sourcing roles?
Supply chain management, operations management, business administration, industrial engineering, and materials management degrees are the most defensible matches. USCIS looks for a direct relationship between your degree field and the duties of the sourcing role. A general liberal arts degree without relevant coursework is less likely to satisfy the specialty occupation requirement on its own.
What happens to my H-1B if my sourcing job is eliminated or I'm laid off?
You have a 60-day grace period after involuntary termination to find a new employer and have a new H-1B petition filed, change to another visa status, or depart the U.S. During that window you can't legally work, but you can interview and negotiate offers. USCIS confirms this 60-day period through its regulations, so act quickly to avoid falling out of status.
