A case reaches DOL's quarterly files only once it's decided, so this sponsor has no approval rate, decision time, wage or rank yet. Below are its cases, with DOL's status on each.

Where those cases are standing
DOL's own status on each case, counted. Ordered biggest first: these aren't steps in a sequence, and a case can reach an audit without an RFI or re-enter after a decision.
- CERTIFIED
- 5 71%
- RECONSIDERATION APPEALS
- 2 29%
DOL approved the application. The employer has 180 calendar days from the certification date to file the I-140, with no extensions.
The employer has asked the same officer who denied the case to look at it again, within 30 days of the denial. The request can only use documents DOL already had, so new evidence can't be added to fix what the denial was based on.

An email when DOL moves its cases as a group: five or more on or off hold in a day, or a batch decided well above its usual pace.
Fewer than five of its PERM cases are pending as of November 13, 2026, and the census that draws this bar starts at five.

Wage requests and PERM applications, by year
Its newest wage request went in on October 23, 2026, and its newest PERM application on December 19, 2025.
| Year | Wage requests | PERM applications |
|---|---|---|
| 2023 | 1 | 0 |
| 2024 | 8 | 1 |
| 2025 | 7 | 6 |
| 2026 so far | 10 | 0 |
A wage request comes months before its PERM application, so a year's requests can show up as the next year's applications.
How these are counted
Each filing is counted in the calendar year the employer sent it. Wage requests are the green card kind, from DOL's quarterly wage file and its live case status, each case once. PERM applications are from DOL's PERM files and its live case list. DOL publishes no employer number, so filings are matched by the employer's legal name. A wage is good for up to a year, and an employer may ask for one it never uses.
What its H-1B LCAs were for
From DOL's quarterly LCA files: 60 LCAs filed by Sutter Bay Hospitals, 59 of them certified with the worker breakdown on Form ETA-9035.
New hires and transfers
10 positions for new employment, 18 moving here from another employer.
- New employment 7a 10 · 17%
- Change of employer 7e 18 · 31%
- Continuing 7b 24 · 41%
- Change in previous employment 7c 2 · 3%
- Concurrent employment 7d 1 · 2%
- Amended petition 7f 4 · 7%
Shares of the 59 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 4 · 8%
- Level II 21 · 44%
- Level III 3 · 6%
- Level IV 20 · 42%
Shares of the 48 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. 11 of 59 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 January 27, 2026. Declared H-1B-dependent on 0 of 52 LCAs, and a willful violator on 0 of 59. 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
Visas these LCAs support: H-1B 59 · H-1B1 (Singapore) 1. E-3 and H-1B1 use the same LCA as the H-1B.

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.

Your case is with them?
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.
