Sources & how to read these records

Source: U.S. Department of Labor disclosure data. Counts use the identified employer’s certified filings. Each record shows its coverage and refresh dates.

LCA filings precede visa petitions; they are not USCIS approvals or counts of people hired. PERM is separate green card labor certification history and does not establish a green card commitment for a current opening.

H-1B transfers and OPT / STEM OPT support must be confirmed for the individual role. H-1B history does not establish E-Verify participation.
