Ernst & Young U.S. LLP filed the most certified H-1B cases for New York jobs in the first nine months of fiscal 2026: 826, five more than Amazon.com Services LLC with 821. New York counted 35,960 cases from 7,905 employers between October 1, 2025 and June 30, 2026, placed by the first worksite named on each. Every case is a labor condition application, an employer's filing with the Department of Labor, and the department certified each one counted here.

[Our New York list](https://specstream.ai/data/hiring/state/new-york?utm_source=blog&utm_campaign=h1b-2026) covers 24,638 employers with H-1B and PERM filings for New York worksites, from certified cases decided October 1, 2022 to June 30, 2026.

## Against last year

In the same months of fiscal 2025, New York had 36,455 certified cases from 8,083 employers, a little above this year on both. Positions grew, from 68,252 to 76,625.

Ernst & Young U.S. LLP is first despite a fall from 1,377 cases to 826. Brookhaven National Laboratory went from 95 to 350, and Palantir Technologies Inc. from 72 to 156. Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, Inc. nearly doubled, 109 to 204, and JPMorgan Chase & Co. rose from 507 to 683. State University Of New York At Buffalo dropped from 285 to 203.

## How to read these numbers

A case lands in New York when its first worksite is there. Where the employer itself is based does not decide it, and 16,205 of the year's New York cases list an employer state other than NY.

Every name reads as the employer filed it. Of the 25 employers in the table, 23 use more than one spelling across filings, and we do not merge them. Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC and Goldman Sachs Services LLC are two filers and two rows. Three of the 25 carry a university word in their name, and none a staffing or consulting word.

Offered wage comes from the application: the low end of the range, set as a yearly amount. The 39 New York cases without a wage are not in the medians. Titles are the employer's own words; Ernst & Young's include a code.

The data is the Department of Labor's labor condition application disclosure file for fiscal 2026, quarter three, from its [OFLC performance data](https://www.dol.gov/agencies/eta/foreign-labor/performance) page.
