Employer immigration record

Green-card filing pattern in this occupation

Context, not a finding about this posting: of this employer's 33 green-card filings in this occupation, 100% were for a worker who already held the job.

Green-card follow-through: 83%

Of 30 labor certifications old enough to have been used, 5 expired without the employer filing the next step. Median time from filing to decision: 517 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.

Reported a layoff in this occupation

In a green-card filing decided 2026-05-07, this employer stated it had laid off workers in Software Quality Assurance Analysts and Testers (MA) during the preceding six months.Describes the period before that filing, not necessarily today. Unlike WARN notices this is occupation-specific and federal.

Files H-1B transfers

22 transfer filings in the last year, covering 22 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.
