About H1BWageCheck
What is this site?
H1BWageCheck is a free tool for exploring H-1B visa salary data in the United States. We aggregate publicly available data from the U.S. Department of Labor to provide transparent, searchable wage information for H-1B visa holders across thousands of employers and cities.
Data Sources
All data comes from official U.S. government disclosure files:
| Source | Description | Records |
|---|---|---|
| LCA Disclosures | Labor Condition Applications filed by employers when sponsoring H-1B workers. Contains wage offers, job titles, work locations, and filing status. | 1.7M+ |
| PERM Disclosures | Filed by employers seeking permanent labor certification (green card sponsorship). Indicates intent to sponsor permanent residency. | 478K+ |
| BLS Wage Data | Bureau of Labor Statistics occupational wage estimates used for prevailing wage comparisons. | — |
How often is the data updated?
Unlike other H-1B salary sites, our data is updated daily. Automated sentinels check for new DOL data releases every morning. When new data is available, it is imported and pages are regenerated automatically. LCA filings are checked daily, PERM data is checked daily, and BLS wage data is checked monthly.
