Employer immigration record

from this employer's Department of Labor filings

States it is exempt from the H-1B cap

In 33 Department of Labor filings, this employer states it is a nonprofit affiliated with an institution of higher education — one of the statutory grounds for exemption from the H-1B cap. Cap-exempt employers can file year-round without entering the lottery.Employer's own attestation on a Department of Labor wage determination, not a USCIS determination — exemption is decided per petition.

Green-card follow-through: 96%

Of 24 labor certifications old enough to have been used, 1 expired without the employer filing the next step. Median time from filing to decision: 503 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

4 transfer filings in the last year, covering 4 workers. Median labor-condition decision: 8 days. An employer that already files transfers is one that can take over an existing H-1B.
