No elevated audit checkpoints found for City of Austin in public LCA data

Since September 2025, DOL's Project Firewall opens H-1B investigations without waiting for a complaint. These checkpoints come from City of Austin's own public LCA filings (FY2024–FY2026) — the same records an investigator pulls first.

Clear

14% of certified LCAs are at Wage Level I

Level I is the entry-level prevailing-wage tier and the band DOL's Project Firewall reviews first for misclassification (senior duties filed at an entry-level wage). The national share is 17%.

Auditor asksHow was Level I justified for each role — required education, experience and the actual duties performed?

In your PAFPrevailing-wage determination and wage-level worksheet for every Level I LCA.

Clear

0% of LCAs offer a wage within 2% of the prevailing wage

Median offered wage is 17% above the DOL prevailing wage across 6 recent certified LCAs. Paying at the floor is lawful, but it invites the question of whether the wage level itself is right.

Auditor asksShow the actual wage paid (payroll) matches or exceeds the LCA wage for every worker, including benched time.

In your PAFActual-wage memorandum and pay records per LCA; wage-level rationale where the offered wage equals the PW.

Clear

1 worksite across 1 state

Each worksite needs its own 10-business-day LCA notice and a PAF record of that posting; a move to a new area of intended employment needs a new LCA before the worker starts there.

Auditor asksWhere is the posting record for each worksite, and were short-term placements tracked against the 30/60-day limits?

In your PAFPosting notices (or electronic-notice records) per worksite; new-worksite LCAs; placement log.

Clear

Not H-1B dependent (per LCA attestation)

No additional recruitment or non-displacement attestations apply.

Auditor asksDoes the current H-1B headcount still fall under the dependency threshold?

In your PAFHeadcount snapshot supporting the non-dependent attestation at each filing.
