How to Get Visa Sponsorship as a Caregiver

Know that caregiving has limited visa options

Caregiving roles generally don't meet H-1B specialty occupation requirements because USCIS requires the position to need at least a bachelor's degree in a specific field. The available paths exist but are narrower than most professional fields.

Explore the H-2B temporary worker visa

The H-2B visa is the primary path for caregivers, covering temporary or seasonal non-agricultural work. The annual cap is 66,000 visas across all industries, so competition is significant and your employer must file a temporary labor certification.

Consider the EB-3 other workers category for permanent residency

The EB-3 immigrant visa has an "other workers" subcategory for positions requiring less than two years of training or experience. This can apply to caregiver roles, but wait times are very long - often several years or more depending on your country of origin.

Look into regions with acute caregiver shortages

Some U.S. states and rural areas have severe caregiver shortages in home health and assisted living facilities. Employers in these regions may be more motivated to navigate the sponsorship process, even though it's complex for caregiver positions.

Build credentials that expand your options

Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) or Home Health Aide (HHA) certifications make you a stronger candidate for employers willing to sponsor. If you can pursue a nursing degree, that opens significantly more visa pathways including H-1B and EB-3 professional categories.

Work with agencies that specialize in healthcare staffing

Some healthcare staffing agencies place caregivers in facilities that have H-2B approvals or are willing to file. Ask specifically about visa sponsorship during your initial conversations - agencies experienced with international workers will know the process.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a degree to get a caregiver job with visa sponsorship?

No. Most sponsored caregiver positions fall under the EB-3 "Other Workers" category, which covers roles requiring less than two years of training or experience. Some employers require certifications like CNA (Certified Nursing Assistant) or HHA (Home Health Aide), but many provide on-the-job training as part of the sponsorship arrangement.

What visa do caregivers typically get sponsored for?

Most caregiver sponsorship goes through the EB-3 green card pathway, which leads directly to permanent residence. Some seasonal or temporary caregiver positions may use H-2B visas. The EB-3 route takes longer (typically 3-5+ years) but results in a green card rather than temporary status.

How long does the caregiver visa sponsorship process take?

The EB-3 process for caregivers typically takes 3-5+ years from start to green card, depending on processing times and your country of origin. This includes PERM labor certification, I-140 petition, and waiting for your priority date to become current. Some countries face longer backlogs than others.

Can I bring my family with me as a sponsored caregiver?

Yes. Through the EB-3 green card pathway, your spouse and unmarried children under 21 can receive green cards as dependents. If you're on an H-2B temporary visa, family members can join you on H-4 dependent visas but cannot work in the U.S. under that status.

Where is the demand highest for sponsored caregiver positions?

Demand is concentrated in states with large aging populations and in areas where domestic worker recruitment is most challenging. States like New York, California, Florida, Texas, and parts of the Midwest consistently have caregiver positions available for international workers, particularly in home health, assisted living, and long-term care facilities.
