Certified nursing assistant visa sponsorship: common questions
Do US employers sponsor visas for certified nursing assistants?
Yes. From 1 October 2025 to 30 June 2026, the US Labor Department certified no H-1B applications for certified nursing assistants and 1,283 green card (PERM) applications from 53 employers. On this board tonight, 2 open CNAs & PCTs jobs say in their own posting that they sponsor a visa.
Which employers sponsor green cards for certified nursing assistants?
By certified PERM applications in that period: Management Health Systems, LLC (413), United Methodist Homes & Services (198) and Skilled In Management Co LLC (137). 53 employers filed at least one (the list).
What do employers that sponsor certified nursing assistants pay?
The median offered hourly rate on green card applications was $17.79. BLS measured a US median of $20.32 an hour for certified nursing assistants (their pay). An H-1B employer must pay at least the prevailing wage for the job and the place, so a sponsored worker is paid like anyone in the same job.
Where are the jobs these employers sponsor certified nursing assistants for?
Green card worksites: Illinois, New Jersey, Ohio, California and Georgia.
Can a certified nursing assistant from outside the US get a job there with visa sponsorship?
Yes, when a US employer files for it; the worker cannot apply for the visa alone. For certified nursing assistants the usual route is a green card: the employer files a PERM labor certification for a permanent job, then an immigrant petition with USCIS, and the worker comes once a visa number is available. 53 employers had 1,283 PERM applications for certified nursing assistants certified from 1 October 2025 to 30 June 2026 (the list). The H-1B, a temporary work visa for jobs that need at least a bachelor's degree, was certified never for certified nursing assistants in that period. Most open jobs, on this board and elsewhere, hire people already allowed to work in the US, and a job that sponsors says so in its posting. Write to the sponsoring employers above directly, and never pay anyone a fee for a job offer or a visa: honest employers do not ask for one (FTC: job scams).
How current is this, and where does it come from?
From the Office of Foreign Labor Certification's disclosure files for 1 October 2025 to 30 June 2026, published 2026-08-07. Only applications the Labor Department certified are counted, each read as an occupation by its own job title. A certified application is not yet a visa: USCIS decides the petition after it. CareJobs.Now rebuilds these figures each quarter the files are published.
Sources and method
Counted from the Labor Department's disclosure files: only applications it certified (for PERM, also those certified and then expired unused). Each is read as an occupation by its own job title, with the classifier the board's job pages use; a title it cannot read counts only where its occupation code belongs to one occupation alone. Wages are the lowest rate each application offered, a yearly salary counted over 2,080 hours. Employer names are as the Department records them; a name opens a page here only when it matches one of the board's employers exactly.
