H-1B wage level

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

Level II · 2×
Level I$75,8991 entry

Level III$109,0133 entries
Level IV$125,5704 entries

$1,013 more — $109,013 — moves this role to Level III and 3 lottery entries. That figure is inside the range the employer already advertised.

Based on the DOL prevailing wage for this occupation and worksite, a base salary of $109,013 would place this position at wage Level III. That figure is within the posted range, and I'd like to target it. This role classifies under "Industrial Engineers" for prevailing-wage purposes.

DOL prevailing wage, 2026-27 wage year · Industrial Engineers (17-2112) · Bakersfield-Delano, 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

Median time from filing to decision: 493 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.

Files H-1B transfers

3 transfer filings in the last year, covering 3 workers. Median labor-condition decision: 8 days. An employer that already files transfers is one that can take over an existing H-1B.
