Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding H-1B Visa Sponsorship as a Travel Registered Nurse
Verify your BSN meets specialty occupation
USCIS requires a directly related bachelor's degree for specialty occupation status. A BSN satisfies this, but an ADN does not. If you hold an ADN, a bridge program or foreign credential equivalency evaluation through CGFNS won't substitute for the degree requirement.
Check LCA filing history before applying
Not every staffing agency that places travel nurses has H-1B filing history. Use Migrate Mate to filter employers by verified DOL Labor Condition Application filings for nursing roles, so you target agencies already cleared to sponsor.
Distinguish agency sponsors from facility sponsors
Travel nurse H-1B petitions are filed by the staffing agency, not the hospital. The agency is your legal employer for immigration purposes. Confirm the agency, not just the facility, is willing to file the petition and absorb mandatory employer-side fees.
Align your contract length with cap deadlines
H-1B petitions must be filed before the April 1 deadline for an October 1 start. If your current travel contract ends in summer, time your job search and offer acceptance to allow the agency at least six to eight weeks to prepare the I-129 filing.
Confirm state licensure before the LCA is filed
DOL requires a certified LCA listing the work location before USCIS can process the petition. The agency can't certify the LCA until you hold an active RN license in the state where the assignment is. Multi-state compact licensure speeds this up considerably.
Request the prevailing wage tier in writing
DOL sets four prevailing wage levels for RN roles by geography. Use the OFLC Wage Search to look up Level I through Level IV wages for your assignment location, then confirm your offered rate meets or exceeds the level the agency selects on the LCA.
H-1B Visa Travel Registered Nurse: Frequently Asked Questions
Does a travel RN role qualify as a specialty occupation for H-1B purposes?
Yes. USCIS recognizes Registered Nurse as a specialty occupation when the employer requires a BSN as the minimum for the position. An ADN alone does not meet the bachelor's degree threshold. If your agency lists a BSN as required in the job description and on the LCA, the role qualifies. Check the O*NET profile for RN, which USCIS adjudicators reference when evaluating specialty occupation status.
Can a staffing agency sponsor an H-1B for a travel nurse, or does the hospital have to?
The staffing agency sponsors the H-1B because it is the legal employer under the contract. The hospital where you are placed is the worksite, not the petitioner. The agency files the I-129 with USCIS and certifies the LCA with DOL. Some agencies decline to sponsor; you can use Migrate Mate to identify which staffing agencies have an active H-1B filing history for nursing roles.
What happens to my H-1B status when one travel assignment ends and another begins?
Each new assignment at a different worksite triggers a new LCA requirement. If the new location is covered under an existing LCA with the same agency, no new petition is needed, but the agency must post the LCA at the new site. If you switch agencies, you need a new H-1B transfer petition. You can continue working during the transfer under H-1B portability, as long as the new petition is filed before your current one expires.
Does holding a Nurse Licensure Compact license help with H-1B sponsorship across states?
It speeds up the LCA process but does not change the H-1B rules. DOL requires the LCA to list the specific state and county of your assignment. With a compact license, you don't need to apply for a new state license before each assignment, which removes a common bottleneck that delays LCA certification. Without compact licensure, agencies must wait for state board approval before filing, which can push your start date past the petition deadline.
Are mandatory employer fees different for staffing agencies that sponsor travel nurses?
The fee structure follows standard H-1B rules. Employers with 26 or more full-time equivalent employees pay the full ACWIA training fee; smaller agencies pay a reduced amount. USCIS prohibits employers from passing certain mandatory fees to the worker, including the base filing fee and ACWIA fee. The agency must cover these regardless of your contract type. Confirm this in writing before signing any staffing agreement.
