8 certified Labor Condition Applications on file with the U.S. Department of Labor, FY2024–FY2026.
Since September 2025, DOL's Project Firewall opens H-1B investigations without waiting for a complaint. These checkpoints come from State University of New York - Buffalo State University's own public LCA filings (FY2024–FY2026) — the same records an investigator pulls first.
Frequent amendments usually mean worksite or role changes; each one must be covered by a new LCA before the change takes effect.
Median offered wage is 33% above the DOL prevailing wage across 8 recent certified LCAs. Paying at the floor is lawful, but it invites the question of whether the wage level itself is right.
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.
Public DOL disclosure data can lag actual filings by a quarter. Descriptive only — not legal advice.
