Medical laboratory scientist jobs with visa sponsorship in Rhode Island

Yes. From 1 October 2025 to 30 June 2026 the US Labor Department certified 10 green card (PERM) applications for medical laboratory scientists with a worksite in Rhode Island, from 1 employer. Across the US the same files hold every state's medical laboratory scientist sponsors.

By certified applications in that period: O'Grady Peyton International (10). It is the only one that filed. A certified application means the employer sponsored that job; write to them directly, as their own job boards list what is open now.

The median of the lowest hourly rate each green card application offered was $38 an hour (10 applications). The employer must offer at least the prevailing wage for the job in that place, so a sponsored worker is paid like anyone in the same job there.

Green card worksites, most applications first: Providence (8) and Newport (2). Open medical laboratory scientist jobs in Rhode Island lists every employer hiring there now.

Yes, when an employer files for it: the worker cannot apply for the visa alone. For medical laboratory scientists the route is an employment-based third preference (EB-3) green card on a permanent, full-time job offer: the employer's labor certification first, then its immigrant petition (Form I-140), then the visa once your priority date is reached. A job that needs less than 2 years of training or experience is filed as "Other Workers". In the State Department's November 2026 Visa Bulletin that line stands at 1 June 2022 for people born in most countries (1 January 2022 for the Philippines, 22 January 2014 for India): a visa can be given to someone whose priority date is earlier, so the wait is measured in years (the line by country). The employer pays for the labor certification: "An employer must not seek or receive payment of any kind for any activity related to obtaining permanent labor certification", including deductions from your wages (20 CFR 656.12). Never pay anyone a fee for a job offer or a visa.

From the US Labor Department's Office of Foreign Labor Certification disclosure files for 1 October 2025 to 30 June 2026, published 2026-08-07: only applications it certified, each read as an occupation by its own job title and placed in Rhode Island by its worksite. 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.
