Employer immigration record

from this employer's Department of Labor filings

Green-card follow-through: 50%

Of 6 labor certifications old enough to have been used, 3 expired without the employer filing the next step. Median time from filing to decision: 489 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 58% of its 12 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

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