New sponsor

California Institute of Technology

California Institute of Technology filed its first LCA in FY2026 and has 53 filings so far. A sponsorship history this short says little about how it handles a case that goes wrong.

New positions, FY2026
32

Positions filed as NEW employment in the latest filed fiscal year — the closest honest read on new people being sponsored.

Lifetime filings
53

Labor condition applications across every fiscal year in the corpus.

FY2026 – FY2026

Worker positions
53

Positions on those applications — NOT people and NOT visas granted. A worker renewed three times counts three times.

Filing volume

Filings, worker positions and new-employment positions per fiscal year. Three different measurements, never added together.

One filing can declare many positions, and a continued-employment position is a worker already here being renewed — which is why position counts are never summed across fiscal years.

28% of this employer's petition-type positions are continued employment — the same worker renewed. That is why the headline figure above is new-employment positions rather than filings: an employer renewing the same staff every three years produces the same filing volume as one hiring that many new people, and the two are not the same opportunity.

Roles filed

The job title is whatever the employer wrote on the application. Nothing is reclassified, and the wage band is derived from the $5,000 bands rather than read from a stored average.

DOL decisions

Two different measurements. They are never blended into one rate.

A certified-then-withdrawn application was approved and pulled afterwards, so it counts as an approval. An application withdrawn before a decision was never adjudicated and is excluded from the denominator entirely — counting it as a denial would invent a rejection that never happened.

A secondary worksite employer is the company a sponsored worker is placed at. It is named on the application by California Institute of Technology; it is not the sponsor, it did not file, and none of the numbers on this page belong to it. Each of these names is its own entity here, exactly as this one is.

Every figure above is aggregated from Labor Condition Applications published by the US Department of Labor for California Institute of Technology as that name appears on the filings. Filing counts are applications, position counts are worker positions on those applications, and neither is a headcount or a count of visas granted. How these pages are built.
