H-1B wage level

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

Level III · 3×
Level I$91,8741 entry
Level II$113,8592 entries
Level III$135,8243 entries
Level IV$157,8104 entries

$7,810 more — $157,810 — moves this role to Level IV and 4 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 $157,810 would place this position at wage Level IV. 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) · Philadelphia-Camden-Wilmington, PA-NJ-DE-MD. Wage level is derived by USCIS from the offered wage, occupation and worksite; the occupation shown is inferred from the job title.

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 5 green-card filings in this occupation, 100% were for a worker who already held the job.

Third-party placement is common here

77% of this employer's visa filings place the worker at a client company rather than at the employer itself, across 20 clients. Your visa, salary band and layoff exposure would follow the employer of record, not the client.Most common: FORD MOTOR COMPANY · Stellantis · Conagra Brands

DOL often reclassifies their job titles

The Department of Labor assigned a different occupation than this employer requested on 40% of its 15 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

31 transfer filings in the last year, covering 31 workers. Median labor-condition decision: 7 days. An employer that already files transfers is one that can take over an existing H-1B.
