How to read these figures

Certified H-1B headline counts differ from the all-outcome client and recent-record lists. Median wages use records with a reported yearly wage. Mean wages and BLS comparisons use the certified filing summary. Modeled exposure is not an observed count of job losses.

About these record populations

This headline excludes records flagged for data quality. LCA certification does not establish a USCIS approval, a hire, or a current vacancy.

Annual totals include H-1B filings across outcomes and exclude records flagged for data quality. Coverage can differ by year. The latest year can be incomplete.

Industry totals include all LCA outcomes and visa classes. They describe employer filings, not the location or services of the law firm.

Yearly wage percentiles and annualized client averages can use different records. A BLS comparison is a benchmark, not a legal finding or a measure of wages paid.

Source listings show a filing relationship. They do not establish who signed a filing, current firm membership, or misconduct.

. The 1.0 base rate per certified H-1B worker request is a site model assumption. Wage gap multiplier = (BLS median − offered wage) / BLS median, applied only to filings offering less than the BLS median. Related research provides context, not validation of these exact coefficients. This is a modeled estimate, not a count of actual displacements.

The headline counts certified H-1B filings with reported wages. Matched client wage means use the same eligible source records. The model uses a separate certified population and does not measure observed job losses.

Client wage comparisons

All outcomes and visa classes; flagged records are excluded from wage comparisons. Both means use the same filings with a positive annualized offer and positive national BLS median. Each record uses its reported SOC and the latest survey at or before its filing year. Records without a filing date use the latest loaded national survey. Missing benchmarks do not count as zero gaps.

Default order: number of individual filings below BLS. Annual shortfall sums positive benchmark minus offered wage once per filing, without multiplying by worker requests. It is not a measure of wages paid.

Compare the same work and year

Each row groups the same canonical occupation and decision calendar year. Both wage means use the same positive, unflagged offers. Each filing uses its reported SOC and the latest positive national BLS median at or before its filing year. Records without a filing date use the latest loaded national survey. All outcomes and visa classes are included.

Questions about the data & methods

Does Foster LLP file H-1B filings?

Yes. Foster LLP is named on 10,643 H-1B labor condition applications across 990 employers, per Department of Labor disclosure records.

How many employers use Foster LLP for H-1B filings?

990 employers have filed H-1B filings naming Foster LLP, totaling 10,643 filings.

What does Foster LLP do in the H-1B process?

The disclosure names the firm associated with the attorney or agent on the H-1B labor condition application. This links the firm to the filing. It does not establish who signed the employer declaration or prove misconduct.

What wage data is on record for Foster LLP's H-1B filings?

Certified H-1B filings with reported wages have a mean annualized offered wage of $115,138. Flagged records are excluded. In the separate model-certified population, 58% offer below BLS. That population includes filings without reported wages. Offered wages are source values, not a measure of wages paid.

How many names are listed as attorneys or agents for Foster LLP?

The source-name table contains 79 groups linked to Foster LLP. These groups can contain people, organization names, or unresolved names. A listing does not prove a signature or current firm membership.

What worker-equivalent exposure does the model assign to filings naming Foster LLP?

The model assigns about 12,115 worker-equivalent exposures to certified filings that name Foster LLP. This is not a count of documented job losses or a finding against the firm. Each employer's page shows its own breakdown.

How can I report misconduct involving Foster LLP?

Current or former employees, clients, and contractors can file a confidential tip on the XH1B whistleblower page. Reports are timestamped and hash-sealed on arrival, and they support investigations into H-1B program abuse.
