How to read these records

The record

An employer that wants to hire a foreign professional on an H-1B visa files a petition with USCIS. The agency publishes, for each employer and city, how many new and continuing petitions it approved or denied in a fiscal year. This site gathers the cities of each employer into one record.

Status

Employer with at least one H-1B decision in fiscal year 2023. Fiscal year 2023 only (October 2022 to September 2023): later years are not on this site yet. Counts are petitions decided, not people employed today. The record ID is made by this site.

What is not here

Individuals, and any name without a company word (Inc, LLC, Corp, Co…). Owner and contact names, phone numbers and mailing addresses, which this site never downloads.
