How to Use This Data

Evaluating an employer

Search any company to see their H-1B approval rate over time. A high rate (90%+) means USCIS consistently approves their petitions. A declining rate could signal scrutiny.

Considering a job change

Compare your current employer's approval rate vs a potential new employer. Transfer petitions (change of employer) have their own approval rates — available for FY2024+ data.

Understanding risk

Sign up to get alerts when your employer files a WARN Act layoff notice. For H-1B holders, employment changes directly affect immigration status.

Source: USCIS H-1B Employer Data Hub. FY2009-2026, 1M+ records. FY2026 is partial year (data as of 12/31/2025). Approval rates calculated from initial approvals and denials.
