H-1B wage level

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

Level I · 1×
Level I$152,7971 entry
Level II$187,0752 entries
Level III$221,3743 entries
Level IV$255,6534 entries

The bottom of this range ($131,400) is below the Level I prevailing wage of $152,797. 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 $187,075 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) · San Jose-Sunnyvale-Santa Clara, CA. 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 22 green-card filings in this occupation, 100% were for a worker who already held the job.

Green-card follow-through: 82%

Of 22 labor certifications old enough to have been used, 4 expired without the employer filing the next step. Median time from filing to decision: 502 days.100% of their filings were for a worker who already held the job.Only certifications past the 180-day window are counted — recent ones cannot have expired yet.

Files H-1B transfers

27 transfer filings in the last year, covering 27 workers. Median labor-condition decision: 7 days. An employer that already files transfers is one that can take over an existing H-1B.
