Search Registered Nurse Jobs in WashingtonRegistered Nurse Jobs in Washington: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies sponsor visas for registered nurses in Washington?
Washington's largest healthcare employers with a track record of sponsoring registered nurses include UW Medicine, Providence Health and Services, MultiCare Health System, Virginia Mason Franciscan Health, and Seattle Children's Hospital. Community Health of Central Washington and Confluence Health also sponsor nurses in rural and inland areas. Sponsorship is not guaranteed and each employer's willingness to sponsor varies by specialty, unit, and current staffing needs.
Which visa types are most common for registered nurse roles in Washington?
The EB-3 immigrant visa (employment-based, third preference) is the most common pathway for internationally trained registered nurses, typically paired with PERM labor certification filed by the sponsoring employer. The H-1B visa is less frequently used for RN roles because nursing historically has not met the specialty occupation standard at all employers, though some advanced practice settings do sponsor H-1Bs. TN visa status is available for Canadian and Mexican nurses meeting specific credential requirements.
Which cities in Washington have the most registered nurse sponsorship jobs?
Seattle and its surrounding metro, including Bellevue and Renton, concentrate the highest volume of registered nurse sponsorship opportunities due to the density of large health systems and academic medical centers. Tacoma is a secondary hub with MultiCare and CHI Franciscan facilities. Spokane, on the eastern side of the state, has growing demand driven by Providence and MultiCare regional campuses serving a large geographic catchment area.
How to find registered nurse visa sponsorship jobs in Washington?
Migrate Mate is built specifically for internationally trained nurses and other foreign workers seeking visa sponsorship in the U.S. You can filter directly by state and role to see registered nurse positions in Washington where employers have indicated sponsorship willingness. Because sponsorship availability changes frequently, checking Migrate Mate regularly and setting up alerts for Washington RN roles gives you the most current picture of what is actively hiring.
Are there any state-specific considerations for registered nurses seeking sponsorship in Washington?
Washington requires registered nurses to hold a valid Washington State nursing license issued by the Washington State Department of Health. Washington is not part of the Nurse Licensure Compact, so an RN licensed in another compact state cannot practice in Washington without obtaining a separate Washington license. Internationally trained nurses must also have their credentials evaluated through a body such as CGFNS before applying for licensure, and passing the NCLEX is required regardless of country of original training.
What is the prevailing wage for sponsored registered nurse jobs in Washington?
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.
