Green-card intent detected
Reddit, Inc. obtained a prevailing wage determination for Software Developers in San Francisco, CALIFORNIA on 2026-06-11. No matching green-card filing appears in our data yet. The determination expires in 3 days (2026-09-08), and a green-card filing must follow before then or the employer starts over.
Files H-1B transfers
