UK, US H-1B & Canada Visa Sponsor Checker

Check if a company sponsors work visas: the UK register of licensed sponsors, US H-1B LCA filings and Canada LMIA employers. One name, a list of 5,000 or a whole job board export.

This skill teaches your agent when and how to call the Visa Sponsor Checker tool on the MessNoMore Data Tools MCP server, with tight cost caps and answers that cite their source.

Ask your agent

• "Is Revolut a licensed UK visa sponsor, and for which routes?"
• "Which of these 50 companies filed H-1B LCAs last year?"
• "Add visa sponsorship data to this list of London job ads."

What the skill adds

• Picks the right mode and arguments for the question.
• Caps every run to the results the question needs and asks before any job over about $1.
• Handles runs that take longer than the client waits, without starting duplicates.
• Answers in tables with source links and last-verified dates, flags low-confidence matches and never fills gaps from memory.

Why not just ask your agent?

Models answer questions like these from training data that is months or years old, and they guess codes, dates and registry entries that look right. This skill makes the agent fetch the current record from the source instead, and say so when nothing matches.

Use cases

• Check employers before applying for a UK Skilled Worker job
• Filter job boards to H-1B sponsoring companies
• Enrich scraped job listings with sponsor data
• Export UK sponsors by town or visa route
• Screen Canadian employers with positive LMIAs

Data sources

The UK Home Office register of licensed sponsors, US Department of Labor LCA disclosure data and Canada's positive LMIA employer lists (ESDC), refreshed when each publisher releases new data.
