By visa type: 2,038 H-1B, 6 E-3 (Australia). By outcome: 1,907 certified, 121 certified and later withdrawn, 16 withdrawn before a decision.
Filings by quarter
Across all employers, filings bunch up in the first half of each year around the annual H-1B lottery, so compare a quarter with the same quarter a year earlier, not with the one before it.
Seniority of the jobs filed
The government assigns each job one of four wage levels. A higher level means a higher legal minimum.
What these numbers are
- They are wages HCL America Inc attested to on Labor Condition Applications (Form ETA-9035), not paychecks. Bonuses and stock are not included.
- A filing is not a visa or a hire. One filing can cover several positions, and some are later withdrawn. Wage figures use certified filings only.
- The prevailing wage is the minimum the employer must pay for that job in that area, set from government wage surveys.
- On its filings, HCL America Inc declared itself an H-1B-dependent employer: one where H-1B workers make up a large share of staff, which adds hiring obligations.
