USCIS decisions
No matching USCIS record yet. USCIS publishes this data once a year; we match by employer name, so a company can appear under a different legal name.
Layoff notices (last 6 months)
None in the states we cover (CA, WA, NY, NJ, IL, MD, PA, CT).
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.
