H-1B wage level

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

Level I · 1×
Level I$68,4111 entry
Level II$103,3342 entries
Level III$138,2783 entries
Level IV$173,2024 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 "Financial Specialists, All Other" for prevailing-wage purposes.

DOL prevailing wage, 2026-27 wage year · Financial Specialists, All Other (13-2099) · New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ. 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 follow-through: 55%

Of 11 labor certifications old enough to have been used, 5 expired without the employer filing the next step. Median time from filing to decision: 464 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

21 transfer filings in the last year, covering 21 workers. Median labor-condition decision: 7 days. An employer that already files transfers is one that can take over an existing H-1B.
