🛂 H-1B LCA Disclosure Scraper

🚀 Pull every public H-1B Labor Condition Application in seconds. Filter by employer, job title, work city, or year. No API key, no manual XLSX wrangling, no PDF parsing.

Every year the US Department of Labor's Office of Foreign Labor Certification (OFLC) publishes hundreds of thousands of Labor Condition Application (LCA) decisions for H-1B, H-1B1, and E-3 visa workers. Buried in those records is the only public wage data the federal government publishes at the individual case level, along with the sponsoring employer, the job title, the SOC occupation code, the worksite address, the prevailing wage determination, and the immigration attorney representing the employer. Until now the only way to query it was to download a 600 MB quarterly XLSX file and write your own pivot tables.

This scraper turns that public disclosure data into a clean JSON or CSV feed. Plug in an employer name, a city, or a year and get back per-case records with the case status, decision date, base salary, wage range, prevailing wage level, employer POC, and law firm filing on the petition. Use it to benchmark visa sponsorship wages, build a sponsor lookup for an immigration practice, score employer H-1B dependency, or feed a salary comparison product. The data is government-sourced, court-admissible, and refreshed quarterly by DOL.

📋 What the H-1B LCA Disclosure Scraper does

• 🔍 Search by employer. Pull every LCA filed by Stripe, Google, Microsoft, Infosys, or any sponsor in the disclosure dataset.
• 🏙️ Search by work city or year. Build wage tables for a specific metro or a specific fiscal year.
• 💼 Search by job title. Get every Software Engineer, Data Scientist, or Account Executive LCA across all sponsors.
• 💰 Capture full wage detail. Base wage, wage range (from + to), wage unit (Year / Hour / Month), prevailing wage, and PW level (I-IV).
• 📂 Capture full case lifecycle. Submit date, decision date, employment start + end, status (Certified / Denied / Withdrawn).
• 🏛️ Capture attorney + law firm filings. When an agent represents the employer the dataset includes the lawyer name, email, phone, and law firm.

Each record carries the canonical DOL case number, full employer address with NAICS code, the employer point of contact (name, title, phone, email), the worksite address and county, the H-1B dependency flag, the willful violator flag, and the public disclosure election. 60+ fields per case, every value populated when it is filed on the source LCA.

💡 Why it matters: H-1B wage data is the only public per-person wage dataset the US government publishes. It is the source of truth for visa sponsorship benchmarks, immigration case prep, and any salary product that wants to cover the non-resident segment of the US tech labor market.

📊 Data fields

Each record includes: baseSalary, caseNumber, caseUrl, decisionDate, employerLegalName, employmentEndDate, employmentStartDate, fullTimePosition, jobTitle, lawFirmName, naicsCode, prevailingWage, prevailingWageLevel, socTitle, status, submitDate, totalWorkerPositions, visaClass, workCity, workState. These field names come straight from the actor's dataset schema, so what you see here is what lands in your dataset.
