H-1B wage level

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

Level I · 1×
Level I$114,2751 entry
Level II$138,2372 entries
Level III$162,1983 entries
Level IV$186,1604 entries

The bottom of this range ($96,000) is below the Level I prevailing wage of $114,275. An H-1B cannot be filed below the prevailing wage, so an offer at the floor of this band could not be sponsored as posted.

Based on the DOL prevailing wage for this occupation and worksite, a base salary of $138,237 would place this position at wage Level II. That figure is within the posted range, and I'd like to target it. This role classifies under "Software Developers" for prevailing-wage purposes.

DOL prevailing wage, 2026-27 wage year · Software Developers (15-1252) · Boston-Cambridge-Newton, MA-NH. Wage level is derived by USCIS from the offered wage, occupation and worksite; the occupation shown is inferred from the job title.
