Dietitian visa sponsorship: common questions

Do US employers sponsor visas for dietitians?

Yes. From 1 October 2025 to 30 June 2026, the US Labor Department certified 92 H-1B, E-3 and H-1B1 applications for dietitians from 62 employers and 19 green card (PERM) applications from 16 employers.

Which employers sponsor the most H-1B visas for dietitians?

By certified applications in that period: Compass Group USA, Inc. (6), Adventist Health System/Sunbelt, Inc. (5) and Nutrition Therapy Essentials Inc (5). 62 employers filed at least one; the full list has the 25 that filed the most.

Which employers sponsor green cards for dietitians?

By certified PERM applications in that period: Nutrition Therapy Essentials Inc (3), Compass Group USA, Inc. (2) and Barbur Vista Care LLC (1). 16 employers filed at least one (the list).

What do employers that sponsor dietitians pay?

The median of the lowest hourly rate each H-1B application offered was $34.68 an hour; for green card applications, $29.86. BLS measured a US median of $36.73 an hour for dietitians (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 dietitians for?

H-1B worksites, most applications first: California, Florida, New York, Texas and Massachusetts. Green card worksites: California, Oregon, Maryland, Texas and New Mexico.

Can a dietitian 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 dietitians the usual route is the H-1B, a temporary work visa for jobs that need at least a bachelor's degree: 62 employers had 92 applications certified from 1 October 2025 to 30 June 2026 (the list), and 16 employers filed 19 green card applications for permanent jobs. 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.
