How these are counted
Medians are of the published rows with a usable wage, annualised from whatever unit the filing quoted, and withheld under 10 wages. DOL publishes no employer number, so filings are matched by the employer's legal name; another employer with the same legal name would be counted here too. The PERM is the green-card step; the wage request comes months before it, and the LCA is the separate form for an H-1B. DOL publishes each in its own file, and its live record shows what is still open.

What its H-1B LCAs were for
From DOL's quarterly LCA files: 184 LCAs filed by FORMAC, INC., 181 of them certified with the worker breakdown on Form ETA-9035.
New hires and transfers
91 positions for new employment, 16 moving here from another employer.
- New employment 7a 91 · 50%
- Change of employer 7e 16 · 9%
- Continuing 7b 35 · 19%
- Change in previous employment 7c 2 · 1%
- Concurrent employment 7d 0 · 0%
- Amended petition 7f 37 · 20%
Shares of the 181 worker positions requested. These are positions on certified LCAs, not people hired: DOL certifies an LCA before any petition, and many are never used.
What each box on the form means
- New employment (7a). Starting with a new employer.
- Change of employer (7e). Moving here from another employer, keeping the visa classification already held.
- Continuing (7b). Staying with the same employer.
- Change in previous employment (7c). Same employer, no material change to the job duties.
- Concurrent employment (7d). Adding this employer while keeping another.
- Amended petition (7f). Same employer, with a material change to the job duties.
Form ETA-9035, Section B, Item 7, in DOL's words from its LCA record layout. One LCA can tick several boxes.
Wage level it chose
- Level I 32 · 18%
- Level II 117 · 65%
- Level III 30 · 17%
- Level IV 2 · 1%
Shares of the 181 certified LCAs that named an OES level. The form asks for the level only when the employer set the wage from the OES survey itself; 0 of 181 used another source, such as a DOL wage determination or another survey. Level I is entry, Level IV fully competent.
What it declared on Section H
- H-1B-dependent
- Yes
- Found a willful violator
- No
As answered on its newest LCA, filed March 30, 2022. Declared H-1B-dependent on 137 of 139 LCAs, and a willful violator on 1 of 184. Both are the employer's own answers.
What the two answers mean
H-1B-dependent (20 CFR 655.736(a)): 25 or fewer full-time-equivalent employees in the US and more than 7 H-1B workers; 26 to 50 and more than 12; or 51 or more, with H-1B workers equal to at least 15% of them.
Willful violator (655.736(f)): DOL or the Justice Department found a willful failure or a misrepresentation of a material fact in the five years before the LCA was filed.
Either one adds two promises to the employer's LCAs: not to displace US workers, and to recruit US workers before hiring H-1B workers (655.738, 655.739). They don't apply to an LCA used only for exempt workers, paid at least $60,000 a year or holding a related master's degree (655.737). The rule on eCFR
