Sanford Burnham Prebys Medical Discovery Institute
Sanford Burnham Prebys Medical Discovery Institute filed its first LCA in FY2026 and has 32 filings so far. A sponsorship history this short says little about how it handles a case that goes wrong.

Positions filed as NEW employment in the latest filed fiscal year — the closest honest read on new people being sponsored.
Labor condition applications across every fiscal year in the corpus.
FY2026 – FY2026
Positions on those applications — NOT people and NOT visas granted. A worker renewed three times counts three times.
Derived at read time from the $5,000 wage bands, across every occupation.

Filing volume
Filings, worker positions and new-employment positions per fiscal year. Three different measurements, never added together.
| Fiscal year | Filings | Worker positions | New-employment positions |
|---|---|---|---|
| FY2026Oct 2025 – Sep 2026 | 32 | 32 | 17 |
Case status (filings)
| Bucket | Count | Share |
|---|---|---|
| Certified | 13 | 40.6% |
| Certified, then withdrawn | 19 | 59.4% |
Petition type (positions)
| Bucket | Count | Share |
|---|---|---|
| New employment | 17 | 53.1% |
| Continued employment (renewal) | 4 | 12.5% |
| Change of previous employment | 3 | 9.4% |
| Change of employer | 7 | 21.9% |
| Amended petition | 1 | 3.1% |
13% 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.

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.

Offered wages
Every disclosed offered wage on this employer's certified applications, in $5,000 bands.
25th $70,000 · median $78,077 · 75th $85,000 · 32 disclosed positions
Offered wages from certified Labor Condition Applications, grouped into $5,000 bands. Percentiles are computed from the bands, not from a stored average.
Worksites
Places of employment declared on the applications, ranked by how often they appear.

Outcomes
Derived at read time from the stored approval and denial counts. Nothing here is a stored rate.
- Approval rate
- 100.0%
- Approvals
- 32
- Denials
- 0
- Basis
- DOL decisions
US Department of Labor decisions on the applications, not petition outcomes.
32 adjudicated
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.
Every figure above is aggregated from Labor Condition Applications published by the US Department of Labor for Sanford Burnham Prebys Medical Discovery Institute 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.
