H1B Visa Database

Discover our powerful database

We developed a powerful database showing the U.S. jobs employers want to fill with citizens from other countries. When a company submits a labor condition application (LCA) for a position, it is either filling a job opening or looking to displace a U.S. worker. If an application is successful, it will be at least three years before an American could fill that position.
