Where these numbers come from

DOL disclosure files: H-1B: LCAs decided July 2025 to June 2026. Green cards: PERM decisions October 2024 to June 2026. An LCA is filed before an H-1B petition and one LCA can cover several workers. PERM is the labor certification step of an employment green card. USCIS decisions come from the USCIS H-1B Employer Data Hub. Layoff notices are state WARN filings matched by company name. Names are matched after removing punctuation and suffixes like Inc. or LLC, so related companies can appear separately.
