What XH1B calculates / Comparisons & modeled estimates

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.

DOL filing records

The certified headline counts H-1B filings with reported wages and excludes flagged records. The model population also includes filings without reported wages. Client, listed-name, industry, and recent-record lists include all LCA outcomes and visa classes.

Offered wages & BLS

Percentiles use positive wages reported per year. Matched means use eligible annualized wages across outcomes. Reported client means can include other wage units and large converted values. Inspect the filing status and original unit.

Matched names & listed people

Matched firm spellings combine related source records. A name in a filing does not prove current firm membership. Unresolved person names remain separate from resolved people.

Latest decision in this firm record: 2026-03-31. The header update date describes the wider dataset.

Firm and client court records

A filing or a named party does not establish wrongdoing. Direct firm records require an explicit active identity match to the named court party. A lawyer listed as counsel does not make the firm a party. Client cases stay separate.

        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.

        Percentiles use positive wages reported per year. Matched means use eligible annualized wages across outcomes. Reported client means can include other wage units and large converted values. Inspect the filing status and original unit.

        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.

        Decision year 2025 · SOC 15-1252 · Sorted by compared filing count. This is a sample comparison, not a ranking of firm quality.

        How many employers use Populus Group LLC for H-1B filings?

        1 employer has filed H-1B filings naming Populus Group LLC, totaling 3,672 filings.

        What does Populus Group LLC 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 Populus Group LLC's H-1B filings?

        Certified H-1B filings with reported wages have a mean annualized offered wage of $121,518. Flagged records are excluded. In the separate model-certified population, 57% offer below BLS. That population includes filings without reported wages. Offered wages are source values, not a measure of wages paid.

        Which linked employer has the most LCA filings naming Populus Group LLC?

        Populus Group LLC leads the client list with 3,843 firm-linked LCA filings across all outcomes and visa classes.

        How many names are listed as attorneys or agents for Populus Group LLC?

        The source-name table contains 6 groups linked to Populus Group LLC. 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 Populus Group LLC?

        The model assigns about 4,060 worker-equivalent exposures to certified filings that name Populus Group LLC. 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 Populus Group LLC?

        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.
