Welcome to our help center. Here you will find answers to the most common questions.
About
USponsorMe is different from other online job boards in one significant way:
In a standard job board such as Indeed or LinkedIn, employers always ask if you have work authorization and if you need visa sponsorship. By answering ’no’ and ‘yes’, your chance of getting an interview decreases or even disappears. You may have heard “we do not offer visa sponsorship” or “you need a work authorization”, or you may not even hear back from the company.
In USponsorMe, employers may still ask if you have work authorization and if you need visa sponsorship. By answering ’no’ and ‘yes’, you still have a chance of getting an interview, and you won’t hear “we do not offer visa sponsorship” or “you need a work authorization” from jobs you find on USponsorMe, because our employers do offer visa sponsorship for jobs listed on our platform!
High-potential visa sponsorship jobs are the entire focus of our job board. Every job we post is from a company that regularly hires and sponsors foreign employees for a work visa for this kind of position. And every job has been screened for potential visa sponsorship.
So it saves you tons of time by keeping you from wasting your time applying everywhere and constantly hitting the wall of visa sponsorship. You also don’t have to spend hours browsing job listings looking for keywords like “sponsorship” or “visa.” We do all the legwork for you. Simply log in to find the best, most current, high-potential visa sponsorship jobs available. Learn more about USponsorMe in our introduction video.
We have 8 years of experience in the U.S. immigration process and the U.S. job search market for Foreigners!
Sarah Papasodaro and Maxime Hilaire founded USponsorMe, two french people, in 2017 after they went through the nightmarish job finding and visa sponsorship process themself.
In 2014, Sarah got her job in New Jersey, and Max got his job in New York City. Each has been sponsored for a work visa by their respective companies. During the following five years, they underwent several visa filling processes, such as E-1, E-2, H-1B, and the Green Card.
They know how painful it is. That’s why they created the platform they would have loved to have five years ago.
USponsorMe is now based in Austin, TX, and registered in Texas. USponsorMe has also expanded to the “sister” site USponsorMe Exchange.
No, USponsorMe is not an employment agency, staffing service, temp firm, or headhunter. We do not place people into positions nor manage the payment process between employers and employees. USponsorMe is a job site that curates high potential visa sponsorship job opportunities and puts them into one easy place for you to find them (and also allows pre-screened, approved employers to find candidates who fit their hiring needs and then reach out to them directly). You should use USponsorMe as a job board such as Indeed or LinkedIn: find jobs, apply for jobs, and follow up with recruiters.
However, our agency USponsorMe Exchange provides J1 placement; here is more information about it.
USponsorMe is a job site. You have two ways to find a job on our platform:
– Like a standard job site such as LinkedIn or Indeed; you search for jobs, get new jobs by email, apply for them, and follow up your application with internal recruiters. Learn more about how to use our job search engine.
– Extend your job search; you search for companies, search for internal recruiters, and send your job inquiry letter to them.
The big difference with a standard job site is that our jobs are high-potential visa sponsorship jobs. By applying for USponsorMe jobs, you will finally get employers’ feedback, no longer hear “we do not offer visa sponsorship” and not be constrained to negotiate your visa or any kind with employers.
You can also easily manage your job search on USponsorMe:
– You can save as many searches as possible. You will find all your saved searches in your dashboard.
– You can also turn on your job alert on those saved searches for you to get notified by email when we have new high-potential visa sponsorship jobs.
– You can save as many jobs as you want by clicking the “heart” icon on a job from the job search or from the job itself. You will find all your saved jobs in My Jobs.
– When you apply for a job, it will appear in applied jobs. You can easily switch a job status back to “saved”, or further to “interview”.
– When you view the contact details of an internal recruiter, it will appear in “Viewed Contacts”.
– You can also track your interviews by specifying them in applied jobs, and they will appear in “Interviews”.
We will also push you some notifications you see on your dashboard to guide you on what you should do next to get ready with your U.S. job search. Check them out! You can always access your dashboard by clicking the USponsorMe logo on your top right.
We only cover the United States of America.
We cover all States and American territories. You can search by State, territory, or city and apply a radius.
Eligibility
Absolutely! USponsorMe is for you if you need a visa sponsorship from a U.S.-based employer.
USponsorMe is a job site. If you find jobs on USponsorMe; using USponsorMe will help you. Or if you find companies that use to sponsor people like you on USponsorMe; using USponsorMe will help you. Learn more about how to search for jobs, and how to search for companies on USponsorMe.
Before jumping to a conclusion, we strongly recommend that you fully complete your USponsorMe resume as we use your data to calculate the visa you may prequalify for, and show you the right concerned jobs. The more your profile is complete; the more your visa calculation is accurate, and the more jobs you see.
Note: some occupations such as a nurse, therapist, physician, or lawyer may require a license or a U.S. diploma. In that case, you will need to have it before using USponsorMe.
If you have any doubt, reach out to our support and explain your situation; we will tell you if USponsorMe is beneficial for you or not.
You will need a job offer from a U.S.-based employer to get a work visa or work authorization in any cases, except if:
– you are an American citizen;
– you hold a green card;
– you hold an EAD (Employment Authorization Document);
– you won the EDV Green Card lottery and will get the green card;
– one of your parent(s), spouse, child(s), or sibling(s)) is an American citizen or green card holder and is willing to sponsor you;
– your spouse got a non-immigrant visa such as H1B, E1, E2, J1, L1, or A2, and on the one, you can be added as dependent and ask for a work authorization then;
– you are a journalist, or you work for an independent production company and are sent to the U.S.A. by your current company;
– you are employed by a company at a management or expertise level and are sent to the U.S.A. by your current company;
– you have an extraordinary ability in the arts or athletics;
– you have an extraordinary achievement in the motion picture or television industry;
– you have an extraordinary ability or achievement in the sciences, education, or business, and your presence and your activity will benefit the United States;
– you create your own company;
– you invest $800k+ in a business that will benefit the U.S. economy and create jobs.
If you do not fall into one of those exceptions below, USponsorMe may help you, as you need a visa sponsorship from a U.S.-based employer. Search jobs and see if USponsorMe can help you.
If you fall into one of those exceptions below, USponsorMe cannot help you. For the four first exceptions, you do not need any visa sponsorship; we recommend you use general job boards such as Indeed, ZipRecruiter, or LinkedIn. For the other exceptions: you might be able to get a work visa or work authorization without any job offer from a U.S.-based employer. In that case, we recommend you contact a lawyer in immigration law.
Living abroad does not affect your eligibility for the visa.
Living outside the United States while searching for a U.S. job is a general issue, and we suppose that is one of the reasons you are here! And that is one of the benefits of using USponsorMe. All our companies are used to hiring Foreigners living or not in the USA. So no, it is not an issue anymore while using our website!
Yes, before searching for employment, you must possess a Registered Nurse license in a state located in the United States, pass the TOFEL, and be in process with NPTC or completed.
Yes, before searching for employment, you must possess a Physical Therapy license in a state in the United States, pass the TOFEL, and be in process with NPTC or completed.
Yes, before searching for employment, you must possess the bar in the state you’ll be located in the United States.
You also need to know that you’ll need to work in a law office as an employee to be eligible for a visa (except for the O-1).
Yes, you must possess a real estate license in the state you’ll be located in the United States to be a real estate.
But the issue is more than that. You’ll need to be an employee of the company to be eligible for a visa (except for the O-1). However, real estate agents in the United States are not employees, they are employed under contract as they find their own clients themselves. So you cannot be a real estate in the United States until you get the Green Card. However, you can definitely target jobs in business, finance, or law in the real estate industry. It will allow you to gain experience in the real estate industry in the USA before being able to be a real estate agent yourself.
The time to get a job varies depending on the number of jobs you receive and apply for per month, your fit for the jobs, the quality of your applications, and your performance at job interviews. For example, for a USponsorMe member with an American resume and cover letter rewritten by an expert, who applies for 5 or more targeted jobs on USponsorMe weekly and is ready to master job interviews, he usually gets the ideal job offer with visa sponsorship within 4 months.
The time to get a visa varies depending on the visa. TN for Canadians usually takes 2 weeks, and 4 weeks for Mexican. For H-1B at cap-exempt companies, O-1 if you have all documents ready, and E-3, it usually takes 6 weeks. For H-1B and H-1B1, it usually takes 8 to 10 months, and petitions should be submitted once a year, in March. For H-1B and if you are not graduated in the USA with a master’s degree, you may have a 70% chance of not being picked at the lottery and have to wait for next year to resubmit, and so on. We will give you more precise details on the timeframe regarding your profile when you complete it on our platform (for free).
The timeframe to get a job offer and the one to get your visa cannot overlap. So if you take 8 months to get a job offer and 6 weeks to obtain your visa, it will be 10 months. Another example is; if you take 8 months to get a job offer, the deadline to submit your petition is 3 months after you get your job offer, and it takes 10 months to obtain your visa, which will be 21 months.
Note: you’ll need the USponsorMe+ subscription during the time of your job search, and depending on the demand on your profile (how many targeted open jobs you can apply for per month), the length of your job search will vary. It will be more prolonged but less intense. We know that, and that’s why we offer a discounted price on the monthly subscription price if you pay quarterly or yearly. It can also be your choice not to have too much pressure with a more prolonged job search!
We suggest you calculate your estimated timeline to get your job offer and then your visa, as explained in the previous “answer to the question”. Then, you just need to subtract the timeframe from your estimated start date, and you’ll know when you should start!
Otherwise, we would say that you can start as soon as you are ready to dive into your job search!
Visa
USponsorMe is for foreign nationals who need a visa sponsorship from a U.S.-based employer. The required “Qualified Visa” is the visa you may prequalify for. Select the best one you prequalify for. You can switch to another visa you prequalify for any time in the advanced filters then.
If you do not know what visa you prequalify for, we recommend you select “I Don’t Know” or “The Best One” from the list. It will ask you to tell more about you for us to calculate the visa you may prequalify for, or it will pick the best one.
Our jobs are mainly from H1B, H1B1, O1, TN, and E3 employers. We sometimes have E-1/E-2 jobs. Rarely but sometimes it happens, we have employers willing to sponsor other’s visas.
To get to the bottom of it, we recommend you browse our jobs with the visa you have in mind. If you see open jobs, bingo! We have U.S.-based employers willing to sponsor you!
We also provide sponsorship for J1 Intern/Trainee visas through our USponsorMe Exchange agency.

The sponsorship process for the green card may last two years and can be even more for some citizens such as Chinese and Indians. The company may have to prove you do not take the job from an American (the PERM). That is a long process, and it’s very costly for the company (can be up to $40,000). By experience, we do not know any companies that want to directly sponsor someone they do not know for a green card. It can happen if you have a really strong referral, someone they know and trust.
You’ll need to obtain first a nonimmigrant visa such as the H-1B, O-1, etc., with the company. Then, as they will know you and how you work, you’ll be able to negotiate with them your permanent residency.
No, you don’t. One benefit of using USponsorMe; you won’t need to search for a lawyer. Our companies work with lawyers. When you are ready to get hired by one of our companies, they will put you in contact with their lawyers. Their lawyers will tell you precisely what you need to do for your visa petition filling.
One benefit of using USponsorMe; you won’t need to pay for your work visa for a job posted on our platform (J-1 is not a work visa and is an exclusion, learn more about J1 fees in our sister company USponsorMe Exchange), as all our jobs are from companies that regularly hire and sponsor foreign employees for a work visa for the kind of position. Our companies will pay for the visa for you and your whole family.
Just for you to have an idea of how much your company will pay, the fees of the lawyer who will fill for your visa will represent 90% of the cost of the visa. Lawyers’ fees vary between visa types and lawyers. Usually, it is between $1,500 to $40,000 USD for a visa, one visa per person.
USponsorMe may not be the best website to help you, as our jobs are mainly from H1B, H1B1, O1, TN, and E3 employers, and sometimes our employers can sponsor for E-1 or E-2. Rarely but sometimes it happens, we have employers willing to sponsor other’s visas. To be clear in mind, here is what you need to do to know if USponsorMe can still be beneficial to you:
1. We first recommend that you fully complete your USponsorMe resume. We will tell you if your resume still needs improvement. The more your profile is complete; the more your visa calculation is accurate.
2. If you still do not see one of those visas on your list, search for jobs on USponsorMe with your criteria and see. Do you find jobs? It’s your lucky day! USponsorMe can still be beneficial for you.
3. Don’t you find any jobs? Ensure you use our job search engine correctly by following our instructions. If you use it correctly and still do not see any jobs, check if we have sponsor employers that regularly hire and sponsor foreign employees for a work visa for a similar position by searching for companies. Do you find any companies? Your chance is limited but still. USponsorMe is still beneficial for you. You can send inquiry letters to those companies directly. See here how you should search for sponsor companies. You can bookmark as many URL searches as you want in your browser. See here how you should search for internal recruiters and talent acquisitions at those companies.
Don’t you find any companies? Your project might still be feasible, but USponsorMe can unfortunately not help you achieve your goal.
In any case (jobs, no jobs, companies, no companies), we recommend you set up your job alert to get notified when we have jobs for you; it’s free. We constantly add new jobs and companies, so get notified when we have the right fit for you! Even if USponsorMe cannot help you today, it can be in the future.
When you enroll in USponsorMe+, we will manually check your eligibility for the calculated visas and target roles. If our manual check impacts your job or company results, we will tell you, and you’ll be able to cancel your subscription and get a full refund within 14 days.
4. Last but not least, we also provide sponsorship for J1 Intern/Trainee visas through our USponsorMe Exchange agency. See if you qualify here, and contact us if you think you are or possibly can be!
There is a simple way to know if your project is feasible; search for jobs on USponsorMe with your criteria and see:
– Do you find jobs? Good news! Your project is feasible, and USponsorMe can be very beneficial for you! Do you see a lot? You have plenty of chances! Do you see a few? Your chance is limited but still. USponsorMe is still beneficial for you.

Note: the system calculates the visa you technically qualify for without checking if we have opportunities for you. Visa sponsorship demand depends on the labor shortage in the USA. Employers only employ and sponsor a work visa for candidates if they need to. And they need to when they do not find anyone locally skilled enough to do the job. H-1B, H-1B1, or E-3 is usually distributed to engineers, scientists, postdoctorals, accountants, teachers, professors, lecturers, etc. (list not exhaustive). TN has specific occupational fields (following labor shortage), and O-1 is for the elites.
For your information, we also provide sponsorship for J1 Intern/Trainee visas through our USponsorMe Exchange agency. See if you qualify here, and contact us if you think you are or possibly can be!
No, you do not need us anymore as you do not need sponsorship. As an American citizen or everyone who does not need sponsorship, we recommend you use general American job sites for your U.S. job search, such as Indeed, ZipRecruiter, LinkedIn, etc. Those are great and free to use!

Strong of our 8 years of experience in job search for foreign nationals who need a visa, we can provide you today with a job site that only contains jobs with the ones there is a high probability to get sponsored for a visa as our jobs are from companies that recently and regularly hire and sponsor foreign employees for a work visa for a similar position. And every job has been screened for potential visa sponsorship.
However, not all companies are equal. Each company has an annual quota for hiring and sponsorship depending on its size and needs, and some have a much higher quota than others. Some are H1B cap exempts; some are not.
On the other side, not all of you are equal. Companies will prioritize candidates who can work for them first without sponsorship needed, such as TPS, asylum, OPT, or EAD, and consider sponsorship then. The second round of priority candidates is those with access to an easy visa such as H1B Transfer, TN, E3, or O1 visa (except for H1B cap exempt). Then, they will prioritize H1B1 and master’s graduates for H-1B.
It means that even if our open job comes with a high probability of sponsorship, you compete with each other, and if this concerns a company with a low annual quota and if you are at the bottom of the scale, the probability they will choose someone else is higher than a company with a high annual quota, as they are massively hiring and sponsoring.
That’s why we developed the sponsorship hint, a score that tells you how much probability you have to personally get sponsored for a concerned job. This score should be used only in the case you have too many jobs and want to prioritize the ones you apply for first.
The sponsorship hint has the sole objective of helping you prioritize your job search, in the case if you have many jobs on USponsorMe, and you are not capable of applying for all of them. In that case, you’ll need to prioritize jobs and apply for the ones you have the highest chance of sponsorship.
You do not need to use the hint if you do not need to prioritize jobs, and can apply for all jobs you see.
See here how you can use the sponsorship hint.
First, you need to be a USponsorMe+ member to see employers and apply for any jobs. Each employer decides how it wants you to apply for jobs through our platform.
Employers can set up the job post to allow you to apply through USponsorMe, or require you to apply directly from the careers page on their websites. Some companies may request that you e-mail your resume and cover letter instead of applying through USponsorMe or their system. When this happens, the company’s e-mail address will be provided in the job listing on USponsorMe.
When you click the button “Apply Now”, we’ll remind you how your profile matches the job by taking those criteria: visa type, job title, sponsorship score, and skills.
Definitely yes! After you apply for a job, you’ll find it in applied jobs. You will see a green button, “Message Recruiters”. Click it to browse recruiters. You’ll see recruiters’ emails and social media profiles. We recommend you follow up with them for each job you applied.
We also provide templates of follow-up emails to our USponsorMe+ members.
Definitely yes! We designed USponsorMe to ease your U.S. job search at all points.
You can save as many searches as possible. You will find all your saved searches in your dashboard. You can also turn on your job alert on those saved searches for you to get notified by email when we have new jobs.
You can save as many jobs as you want by clicking the “heart” icon on a job from the job search or from the job itself. You will find all your saved jobs in My Jobs.
When you apply for a job, it will appear in applied jobs. You can easily switch a job status back to “saved”, or further to “interview”. When you view the contact details of a recruiter, it will appear in “Viewed Contacts”. When you land an interview, it will appear in “Interviews” (you will need to move the job manually to Interviews from applied jobs).
Yes! That’s correct, especially if you see some jobs on USponsorMe from this company. A sponsor company does not sponsor everyone in all departments. They only sponsor where they need to, due to short labor in the USA.
However, we are not Hercules yet, and we might not collect all jobs that need to be. If you want to make sure you have a high chance of visa sponsorship with a job you find outside of USponsorMe, we recommend you to search with the company name on our company search database and check for what SOC titles (job categories) they use to sponsor.
Companies
Yes! Our companies regularly hire and sponsor foreign employees for a work visa.
Our sponsor companies come from various sources, such as the Department of Labor of Foreign Workers, Chambers of Commerce, several associations of foreign companies, and from search engines where sponsor companies find us.
Every year, we collect data from visa petitions filled to the U.S. Department of Labor of Foreign Workers, such as the company, the type of visa they sponsored, the number of petitions, the position, the work location, the citizenship, etc. For all other companies, we simply ask them to provide us with those data!
Our data scientist designed a complex aggregator that cleans and merges all the data for each identified sponsor company. From there, strong with our 8 years of experience in visa sponsorship, such as H-1B, E, O, we analyze those historical data and only pick companies that regularly hire and sponsor foreign employees for a work visa for a similar position, discarding all others (30% selected only); we elect a “company | position” by the last year petition (recently), the number of petitions per year during the last three last consecutive years (regularly). We also apply other criteria such as violations, H-1B dependents, etc.
The company database is updated weekly when a new sponsor company wants to register on our website and publish their jobs.
We also update our company database annually with the annually filled petitions to the U.S. Department of Labor of Foreign Workers. During this update, we archive companies we consider no more a sponsor and add new ones considered sponsors.
You may need to search for sponsor companies in several cases. For example:
– you have found a job outside USponsorMe and want to verify if the company is a sponsor company; you would search by company name.
– you do not find any jobs yet, and you want to know if you still have a chance to get sponsored for a visa by a U.S. employer by checking if there are sponsor employers that regularly hire and sponsor foreign employees for a work visa for a similar position (even if they have no open jobs yet); you would search by sponsored job title and visa.
– you want to extend your job search by sending inquiry letters to sponsor companies directly; you would search by sponsored job title and visa.

You may need to search for internal recruiters:
– for sending inquiry letters;
– for following up with a job you applied for. If this is a job you applied for on USponsorMe, you’ll be able to search for internal recruiters from applied jobs by clicking the green button “Message Recruiters”. Suppose this is a job you applied for outside of USponsorMe. In that case, you’ll be able to search for internal recruiters from the concerned company details page by clicking the button “Contact” (you’ll need first to search the company by company name).

Our job site is free to use to browse jobs, receive jobs, browse companies. You’ll need a paid membership if you want to apply for jobs, followup with recruiters, or get recruiters contact to send inquiry letters.
Whatever plans you choose, you will have the same features. What change is the discount price depending on the length/billing period.
For example, if you have a few jobs, your job search may take longer. You need to consider how many jobs average you can apply for per month. Or if you do not want too much pressure and limit your number of applications per week.
If you have no jobs and consider sending inquiry letters to employers only, depending on the number of employers you have, you may only need a month or two to send them.
