Green-card intent detected

Whatnot Inc. obtained a prevailing wage determination for Data Scientists in Culver City, CALIFORNIA on 2026-06-08. No matching green-card filing appears in our data yet. The determination expires in 0 days (2026-09-05), and a green-card filing must follow before then or the employer starts over.

Green-card follow-through: 80%

Of 5 labor certifications old enough to have been used, 1 expired without the employer filing the next step. Median time from filing to decision: 508 days.100% of their filings were for a worker who already held the job.Only certifications past the 180-day window are counted โ€” recent ones cannot have expired yet.

Files H-1B transfers

25 transfer filings in the last year, covering 25 workers. Median labor-condition decision: 7 days. An employer that already files transfers is one that can take over an existing H-1B.

Sourced from Department of Labor LCA, PERM and prevailing-wage disclosure data. Employer matching is by name, so figures may be split across an employer's legal entities. Absence of a filing means none appears in our copy of the data, not that none exists.
