What is an LCA?

A Labor Condition Application is the wage-and-conditions form an employer files with the U.S. Department of Labor before an H-1B petition. It states the job, the offered wage, and the worksite, and carries four attestations: pay at least the required wage, working conditions that do not adversely affect U.S. peers, no strike or lockout at the worksite, and notice to U.S. workers. H-1B-dependent and willful-violator employers carry an extra non-displacement duty, with exemptions; it does not attach to every filing.

What does the case status mean?

Certified means the Department of Labor approved the application after a completeness review of the form; it is not a finding that every filed value is accurate. Denied means DOL rejected it. Withdrawn means the application was pulled. The status on this page is the one recorded in the DOL disclosure file.

Is an approved LCA the same as an approved visa?

No. The LCA is only the wage-certification step. The actual visa decision is made separately by USCIS on the H-1B petition. An approved LCA does not guarantee a visa.
