Fewer than five of its PERM cases are pending as of November 12, 2026, and the census that draws this bar starts at five.

What its H-1B LCAs were for

From DOL's quarterly LCA files: 5 LCAs filed by FTI BUYER, L.L.C., 4 of them certified with the worker breakdown on Form ETA-9035.

New hires and transfers

1 positions for new employment, 0 moving here from another employer.

  • New employment 7a 1 · 25%
  • Change of employer 7e 0 · 0%
  • Continuing 7b 0 · 0%
  • Change in previous employment 7c 3 · 75%
  • Concurrent employment 7d 0 · 0%
  • Amended petition 7f 0 · 0%

Shares of the 4 worker positions requested. These are positions on certified LCAs. They don't count people hired, because 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 0 · 0%
  • Level II 1 · 33%
  • Level III 0 · 0%
  • Level IV 2 · 67%

Shares of the 3 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. 1 of 4 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
No
Found a willful violator
No

As answered on its newest LCA, filed April 22, 2026. Declared H-1B-dependent on 0 of 5 LCAs, and a willful violator on 0 of 5. 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. Or 26 to 50 employees and more than 12 H-1B workers. Or 51 or more employees, 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

Counted under FTI BUYER LLC, FTI BUYER L L C, matched by name, the way the LCA counts above are.

What these counts are, and aren't

Counts of workers on USCIS's first decision, by the fiscal year USCIS recorded it. Appeals, revocations and petitions still pending aren't in them. The location is the employer's mailing address, which doesn't show where the work is.

  • New employment. The worker is outside the US with no classification, is changing to H-1B from another classification, or stays with the employer in a different classification.
  • Change of employer. The worker moves to this employer from another, in the H-1B classification already held.
  • Continuation. Continuing previously approved employment with the same employer, without change.
  • Change with the same employer. A non-material change, such as a new job title without a material change in duties.
  • Amended petition. A material change in the terms or conditions of employment, or a substitution.
  • New concurrent. A second employer while the worker keeps working for the first.

The case-number lookup reads DOL live and can set an alert for the next change.

Where the queue stands

DOL works one national queue, oldest first, whoever filed the case. Processing times covers the whole of it.

This page is rebuilt periodically, so a status on it can lag DOL by days. The case lookup doesn't lag, because it asks DOL at the moment you ask it.
