from this employer's Department of Labor filings
Green-card follow-through: 67%
Of 21 labor certifications old enough to have been used, 7 expired without the employer filing the next step. Median time from filing to decision: 495 days.97% 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
16 transfer filings in the last year, covering 16 workers. Median labor-condition decision: 7 days. An employer that already files transfers is one that can take over an existing H-1B.
