Source and method. U.S. Department of Labor, Labor Condition Application (LCA) disclosure files, FY2015 through FY2026. Each certified LCA filing counts once, regardless of how many worker positions it covers. FY2026 covers October 2025 through March 2026. The October 2025 government shutdown held that month's certified filings near zero, so FY2026 totals run low. Median wage is the median of reported LCA wages for this employer. An LCA is a required first step of the H-1B process and does not by itself mean a visa was issued. Data free to cite with attribution to layoffhedge.com/h1b.
