Sponsors, but it's cap-subject — you still face the weighted lottery (~30% per draw at Level II). Good if you win; have a cap-exempt backup on your list.

H-1B wage level

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

Level I · 1×
Level I$63,3361 entry
Level II$103,3342 entries
Level III$143,3543 entries
Level IV$183,3524 entries

$3,334 more — $103,334 — moves this role to Level II and 2 lottery entries. That figure is inside the range the employer already advertised.

Based on the DOL prevailing wage for this occupation and worksite, a base salary of $103,334 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 "General and Operations Managers" for prevailing-wage purposes.

DOL prevailing wage, 2026-27 wage year · General and Operations Managers (11-1021) · Chicago-Naperville-Elgin, IL-IN. Wage level is derived by USCIS from the offered wage, occupation and worksite; the occupation shown is inferred from the job title.
