Green-card filing pattern in this occupation
Context, not a finding about this posting: of this employer's 38 green-card filings in this occupation, 97% were for a worker who already held the job.
Green-card follow-through: 59%
Of 22 labor certifications old enough to have been used, 9 expired without the employer filing the next step. Median time from filing to decision: 480 days.97% 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 44% of its 55 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
7 transfer filings in the last year, covering 7 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.
