Visa sponsorship record

From 1 October 2025 to 30 June 2026, the US Labor Department certified 5 H-1B applications from Sanford Health for registered nurses, offering a median $23.23 an hour (the low end of each application's wage range). That is the employer's record, not a promise for this job: ask its recruiter whether this one sponsors a visa. Green cards for registered nurses are on the Labor Department's Schedule A and are filed with USCIS directly, so this record holds almost none of any employer's.

  • Limits on mandatory overtime: Partial: a nurse may decline extra consecutive hours beyond a normal work period if unsafe in the nurse's judgment, without retaliation; emergencies excepted. Not a flat ban (covers nurses in hospitals and other licensed health care facilities (not nursing facilities)). Minn. Stat. § 181.275 (source: Minn. Stat. § 181.275)
