H-1B wage level

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

Level I · 1×
Level I$110,3861 entry
Level II$142,4382 entries
Level III$174,5123 entries
Level IV$206,5654 entries

Even the top of this range is below the Level II threshold of $142,438, so this role stays at one lottery entry however you negotiate. That is a property of the posted band, not of you.

Employer immigration record

from this employer's Department of Labor filings

Third-party placement is common here

42% of this employer's visa filings place the worker at a client company rather than at the employer itself, across 10 clients. Your visa, salary band and layoff exposure would follow the employer of record, not the client.Most common: Alexion Pharmaceuticals · Cellipont Bioservices · HCSC/BCBSFiles as an H-1B dependent employer.

Files H-1B transfers

8 transfer filings in the last year, covering 8 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.
