Which companies sponsor visas for registered nurses in New York?
New York's largest health systems are the most consistent sponsors. Northwell Health, NewYork-Presbyterian, Mount Sinai Health System, Montefiore Medical Center, and NYC Health + Hospitals have all sponsored registered nurses for H-1B and EB-3 visas in recent years. Staffing agencies that place nurses in New York hospital systems also frequently appear in Department of Labor disclosure data as petition sponsors.
Which visa types are most common for registered nurse roles in New York?
The EB-3 immigrant visa is the most common pathway for internationally trained registered nurses, typically filed alongside a PERM labor certification. The H-1B nonimmigrant visa is also used for RN roles when the position qualifies as a specialty occupation, though this requires a qualifying degree match. Some nurses enter on TN status if Canadian or Mexican, and Schedule A shortage occupation designation can streamline the EB-3 process for nurses specifically.
Which cities in New York have the most registered nurse sponsorship jobs?
New York City accounts for the largest share of sponsorship activity, driven by the concentration of academic medical centers, public hospital networks, and specialty care facilities across Manhattan, Brooklyn, and the Bronx. Buffalo and Rochester also have meaningful sponsorship volume through systems like ECMC and University of Rochester Medical Center. Long Island, particularly Nassau and Suffolk counties, sees consistent demand through Northwell Health's regional network.
How to find registered nurse visa sponsorship jobs in New York?
Migrate Mate is built specifically for international job seekers and filters registered nurse roles in New York by visa sponsorship availability, so you're not sorting through listings from employers who won't sponsor. Search for registered nurse positions and filter by New York state to see active openings from health systems and staffing agencies that have a documented history of sponsoring international nurses.
Are there any New York-specific considerations for registered nurses seeking visa sponsorship?
New York requires registered nurses to hold an active New York State RN license issued by the Office of the Professions before practicing. International nurses typically need to pass the NCLEX-RN and have their foreign credentials evaluated through a credentialing body. New York's prevailing wage requirements for sponsored positions are enforced through the Labor Condition Application process, and wages in the New York City metro area reflect some of the highest prevailing wage determinations in the country.
What is the prevailing wage for sponsored registered nurse jobs in New York?
U.S. employers sponsoring a visa must pay at least the prevailing wage, which is what workers in the same role, area, and experience level typically earn. The Department of Labor sets this rate to make sure companies aren't hiring foreign workers simply because they'd accept lower pay than a U.S. worker. It varies by job title, location, and experience. You can look up current prevailing wage rates for any occupation and location using the OFLC Wage Search page.
