Employer immigration record

from this employer's Department of Labor filings

Green-card follow-through: 41%

Of 27 labor certifications old enough to have been used, 16 expired without the employer filing the next step. Median time from filing to decision: 475 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

29 transfer filings in the last year, covering 29 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.
