Green-Card Sponsorship Skyrockets as US Employers Offer Visa Support
The number of job postings that offer green-card sponsorship has increased, analysis shows.
According to a Hiring Lab analysis, ads posted on Indeed that mention visa support have almost quadrupled since 2021.
However, jobs offering sponsorship still make up only a tiny fraction of ads placed.

The Office of Homeland Security Statistics estimated there were 12.8 million lawful permanent residents, or green-card holders, living in the U.S. on January 1, 2024.

In June 2021, the share of jobs that offered green-card support fell to 0.04 percent. This increased to a peak of 0.16 percent in October 2024, then fell slightly to 0.14 percent in May 2025. That means the job posts that offer visa support has increased by almost 285 percent from the pre-pandemic baseline to October 2024.
