# Visa Sponsorship Jobs Report 2026

Data through June 2026.

When a US tech job posting mentions visa sponsorship, it mostly mentions it to refuse it.
Across 81,445 sampled posting descriptions, 5.8% mention
sponsorship at all, and 97.3% of those mentions (4,613 of
4,741) are explicit refusals. Silence is not a yes — but it is not a no.

- Mentions that are refusals: 97.3% (4,613 of 4,741)
- Postings that mention sponsorship at all: 5.8%
- Text sample size: 81,445 descriptions (25% TABLESAMPLE)

Caveat: descriptions are truncated, so mention counts are lower bounds; a mention is not a
formal sponsorship policy. This report does not identify sponsoring employers.
