H1B Sponsors: 80% to 95% Approval Rate
These employers have H1B approval rates between 80% and 95%. While most applications are certified, there is some variability, which could stem from specialty occupation challenges, wage level disputes, or petition quality.
Approval-rate buckets group H-1B-sponsoring employers by how consistently their filings pass DOL Labor Condition Application review. 80% to 95% captures 82 employers in the dataset. The approval rate captured here is the share of an employer's LCA filings that received certification (versus denial or withdrawal). High approval rates reflect mature immigration programs with well-prepared filings; lower rates can signal RFE-stage challenges, eligibility issues with specific roles, or filing-quality problems.
For job-seekers evaluating sponsors, approval rate is a useful triage signal — but it interacts with volume: a 100% approval rate over 3 filings is much less informative than 95% over 300 filings. The employer-level pages below break the rate out alongside the underlying volume.
