Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding H-1B Visa Sponsorship in Travel Nurse RN
Verify your credentials meet specialty occupation standards
USCIS requires a U.S. bachelor's degree in nursing or its equivalent for H-1B approval. If you hold a foreign nursing degree, get a credential evaluation from CGFNS before applying so employers don't flag a documentation gap during petition review.
Target hospital systems over staffing agencies first
Direct-hire hospital employers file H-1B petitions as the employer of record, which avoids the third-party placement complications that arise with travel nursing staffing agencies. Agency-sponsored H-1Bs for travel nurses face additional USCIS scrutiny over employer-employee control.
Search LCA filing history on Migrate Mate
Filter for Travel Nurse RN roles using Migrate Mate's DOL Labor Condition Application data to identify which hospital networks and healthcare employers have actively filed H-1B petitions for RN positions, not just for administrative or tech staff.
Confirm NCLEX passage and active state licensure early
H-1B petitions for RNs must demonstrate licensure in the state of intended employment. Compact license states simplify multistate travel assignments, but USCIS still requires proof of a valid license for each work location named in the LCA.
Ask employers about premium processing before accepting offers
Travel nursing assignments often run 13 weeks, so standard H-1B processing timelines can outlast your assignment start date. Confirm whether the employer will file USCIS Form I-907 for premium processing to avoid a gap between your start date and approval.
Check prevailing wage levels using OFLC Wage Search
DOL sets prevailing wages by county and job zone for RN positions. Your offered pay must meet or exceed the applicable wage level. Use OFLC Wage Search to verify the rate for each assignment location before the LCA is filed.

Find Travel Nurse RN JobsTravel Nurse RN H-1B Visa: Frequently Asked Questions
Does a Travel Nurse RN role qualify as an H-1B specialty occupation?
Yes. USCIS recognizes registered nursing as a specialty occupation when the position requires at least a bachelor's degree in nursing as a minimum entry requirement. Most hospital-based travel RN roles meet this standard, but positions that accept an associate degree or any bachelor's degree may face a Request for Evidence challenging specialty occupation status.
Can a travel nursing staffing agency sponsor my H-1B visa?
Staffing agencies can sponsor H-1B visas for travel nurses, but USCIS scrutinizes these petitions more heavily because the agency must prove it controls the day-to-day work, not just the client hospital. Many agencies avoid H-1B filings for this reason. Direct-hire positions at hospital systems typically carry fewer adjudication risks and clearer employer-employee relationships.
How do short-term travel assignments affect my H-1B status?
Your H-1B is tied to the petitioning employer and the work locations listed in the LCA. Changing assignments to a new facility or state requires an amended LCA and potentially an amended H-1B petition before you start work at the new site. Failing to file an amendment before relocating can put your status at risk.
How do I find travel nurse employers with H-1B filing history?
Migrate Mate surfaces DOL Labor Condition Application data by employer and occupation, so you can identify hospital networks and healthcare systems that have filed H-1B petitions specifically for RN roles. This is more reliable than relying on employer claims during the recruitment process, since LCA filings are public record.
Does my foreign nursing degree qualify for H-1B purposes?
USCIS accepts a foreign nursing degree if it's equivalent to a U.S. bachelor's degree in nursing. You'll need a credential evaluation from an organization like CGFNS to document equivalency. A three-year foreign nursing diploma is typically not equivalent to a four-year U.S. BSN, which can result in a denial unless you also have qualifying work experience to bridge the gap.
