How to Get Visa Sponsorship as a Home Health Nurse
Target staffing agencies over direct employers
Home health staffing agencies sponsor nurses far more frequently than individual clinics or home care companies. They have established immigration legal teams, faster processing timelines, and experience placing international nurses in compliant sponsored roles.
Understand the EB-3 pathway specifically
Nursing is one of the few professions with a dedicated EB-3 Schedule A classification, which skips the PERM labor market test. This significantly shortens the green card timeline and makes nursing one of the more favorable sponsorship categories.
Get a credentials evaluation early
If you trained outside the U.S., CGFNS or an equivalent credentialing body must evaluate your nursing degree. This process takes several months, so starting before you have a job offer prevents major delays in your visa or green card application.
Ask about the full contract terms before signing
Many sponsored home health nursing roles come with two to three year employment contracts tied to the sponsorship costs. Understand the reimbursement clauses, relocation terms, and any penalties for early resignation before committing to the offer.

Get Access To All JobsFrequently Asked Questions
Can home health nurses get H-1B visa sponsorship?
Yes, home health nursing qualifies as a specialty occupation under H-1B because the role requires at minimum a bachelor's degree in nursing (BSN). Employers must file a Labor Condition Application and I-129 petition on your behalf. However, most international nurses pursue EB-3 instead because it avoids the H-1B lottery and offers a faster path to permanent residence through Schedule A classification.
What is Schedule A and why does it matter for home health nurses?
Schedule A is a pre-certified list of occupations the Department of Labor has determined face a shortage of qualified U.S. workers. Registered nurses are included, which means your employer skips the PERM labor market test during the EB-3 green card process. This removes several months of processing time and is one reason nursing remains one of the most viable professions for employer-sponsored permanent residence.
Do I need a BSN or is an ADN enough to get sponsored?
An Associate Degree in Nursing (ADN) can be sufficient for EB-3 sponsorship, particularly for home health aide and RN roles at the EB-3 unskilled or skilled worker classification. For H-1B sponsorship specifically, a BSN is generally required since the petition must establish a specialty occupation requiring a bachelor's degree. If you hold an ADN, discuss the EB-3 pathway with your employer's immigration attorney early in the process.
How do I find home health employers who actually sponsor visas?
Migrate Mate lists home health nursing roles from employers with confirmed sponsorship history, so you're not guessing which postings are visa-friendly. Outside of that, large home health staffing networks and national home care chains tend to have established immigration infrastructure. Roles at smaller independent agencies are less likely to sponsor unless they have an existing relationship with an immigration law firm.
How long does the full sponsorship process take for a home health nurse?
Timeline depends heavily on the visa type and your country of birth. EB-3 with Schedule A typically takes one to three years for applicants born outside of India and China, since priority dates are generally current for other countries. Indian-born nurses face multi-year backlogs in the EB-3 queue. H-1B processing takes three to six months after a successful lottery selection, plus time for NCLEX and credentialing if not already complete.
What is the prevailing wage requirement for sponsored Home Health Nurse jobs?
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.
