H-1B wage level

the lottery is wage-weighted — each level is one more entry

Level I · 1×
Level I$105,6021 entry
Level II$127,0882 entries
Level III$148,5543 entries
Level IV$170,0404 entries

The bottom of this range ($84,200) is below the Level I prevailing wage of $105,602. An H-1B cannot be filed below the prevailing wage, so an offer at the floor of this band could not be sponsored as posted.

Based on the DOL prevailing wage for this occupation and worksite, a base salary of $127,088 would place this position at wage Level II. That figure is within the posted range, and I'd like to target it. This role classifies under "Electronics Engineers, Except Computer" for prevailing-wage purposes.

DOL prevailing wage, 2026-27 wage year · Electronics Engineers, Except Computer (17-2072) · Sacramento-Roseville-Folsom, CA. Wage level is derived by USCIS from the offered wage, occupation and worksite; the occupation shown is inferred from the job title.

Employer immigration record

from this employer's Department of Labor filings

Green-card follow-through: 84%

Of 105 labor certifications old enough to have been used, 17 expired without the employer filing the next step. Median time from filing to decision: 483 days.100% of their filings were for a worker who already held the job.Only certifications past the 180-day window are counted — recent ones cannot have expired yet.

DOL often reclassifies their job titles

The Department of Labor assigned a different occupation than this employer requested on 88% of its 137 wage determinations — against a 18% norm. The occupation sets the prevailing wage floor.Reclassification is routine and can reflect genuinely hybrid roles; it is not by itself evidence of underpayment.

Files H-1B transfers

38 transfer filings in the last year, covering 38 workers. Median labor-condition decision: 7 days. An employer that already files transfers is one that can take over an existing H-1B.
