Employer immigration record

from this employer's Department of Labor filings

Green-card filing pattern in this occupation

Context, not a finding about this posting: of this employer's 7 green-card filings in this occupation, 100% were for a worker who already held the job.

States it is exempt from the H-1B cap

In 14 Department of Labor filings, this employer states it is 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 intent detected

Texas Tech University obtained a prevailing wage determination for Business Teachers, Postsecondary in Lubbock, TEXAS on 2026-06-23. No matching green-card filing appears in our data yet. The determination expires in 13 days (2026-09-20), and a green-card filing must follow before then or the employer starts over.

Files H-1B transfers

12 transfer filings in the last year, covering 12 workers. Median labor-condition decision: 41 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.
