Why This Number Matters

Total sponsorship volume is the figure most job boards quote, and on its own it is misleading. An employer filing thousands of petitions a year can be filing almost all of them to extend people it sponsored years ago, which tells an outside applicant very little about their odds.

The new-employment share separates the two. It is the employer's own checkbox on the Labor Condition Application, not an estimate, and it identifies the filings that represent someone entering the company rather than staying in it.

H1B Visa Jobs Research Team

Counted from US Department of Labor LCA disclosure files (FY2021–2026) for certified petitions filed by Apple Inc. with annual wages between $30K and $1M. Shares are of the 16,400 filings that tick at least one employment-type box; the remaining 26.8% of Apple Inc.'s 22,398 certified filings state no type and are excluded rather than counted as renewals. A certified LCA is a step toward an H-1B petition, not an approved visa.
