# MyVisaJobs H-1B sponsor counts, checked against the Department of Labor files

SpecStream

[Public data](https://specstream.ai/blog.md) · Nov 12, 2026 · 5 min read

The MyVisaJobs [2026 Active Hiring Report](https://www.myvisajobs.com/reports/h1b/) ranks H-1B sponsors on fiscal 2025 filings, October 1, 2024 to September 30, 2025. The Department of Labor has since published fiscal 2026 through June 30, 2026, and the order has moved. Google LLC is now second, up from fifth. Tata Consultancy Services Limited fell from sixth to ninth, and Deloitte Consulting LLP left the top ten.

The MyVisaJobs counts also run higher than certified H-1B cases. They match, within a few cases, the number of every filing in the Department of Labor file under the employer's tax number, denied and withdrawn cases included.

Below is the MyVisaJobs top ten as printed on November 12, 2026, next to the same employers in the Department of Labor files.

## The MyVisaJobs top ten, side by side

The first number is the "No. of LCA" MyVisaJobs prints. The next two are fiscal 2025 counts from the Department of Labor files: every filing under the employer's tax number, then certified H-1B cases only. The last columns are certified H-1B cases for fiscal 2026 through June 30, 2026, nine months of the year, and the employer's rank among all H-1B filers in each year.

| Employer | MyVisaJobs, fiscal 2025 | Every filing, fiscal 2025 | Certified H-1B, fiscal 2025 | Certified H-1B, fiscal 2026 to June 30 | Rank, fiscal 2025 | Rank, fiscal 2026 to June 30 |

The fiscal 2026 column covers nine months, so set its ranks against fiscal 2025, not its counts.

## What the MyVisaJobs number counts

A footnote on the report says: "The number of LCA includes renewed, transferred and cap-exempt LCA." Renewals, transfers and filings by cap exempt employers each need a labor condition application, so all of them are in the Department of Labor counts too.

The larger gap is status. For nine of the ten employers, the MyVisaJobs number is within 12 cases of every filing the employer made in fiscal 2025, whatever the outcome. For Cognizant the two are the same, 11,140. Microsoft is the outlier, 60 cases above. Certified H-1B cases alone come out lower for every employer.

Ernst & Young U.S. LLP shows the gap most clearly. MyVisaJobs prints 10,371. The Department of Labor files hold 10,359 of its filings for fiscal 2025: 346 of them are H-1B cases that were denied or withdrawn, and 116 are E-3 Australian or H-1B1 Chile and Singapore cases. That leaves 9,897 certified H-1B cases.

An E-3 case is open only to Australian citizens, so it says nothing about sponsorship for anyone else.

## What changed in fiscal 2026

Through June 30, 2026, the Department of Labor certified 417,721 H-1B cases from 51,763 employers. Against the fiscal 2025 order MyVisaJobs still shows:

-   **Google LLC moved from fifth to second,** with 7,339 certified cases in nine months.
-   **Apple Inc. moved from seventh to fourth,** and Meta Platforms, Inc from eighth to sixth.
-   **Cognizant fell from second to third,** Ernst & Young from third to fifth and Microsoft from fourth to seventh.
-   **Tata Consultancy Services Limited fell from sixth to ninth,** with 2,892 certified cases, against 7,833 in all of fiscal 2025.
-   **Deloitte Consulting LLP dropped to 12th,** and [Tesla, Inc.](https://specstream.ai/data/hiring/employer/tesla-inc-912197729) took tenth place with 2,809 cases.

The full fiscal 2026 top 30, with job titles and wages, is in [H-1B sponsors 2026](https://specstream.ai/blog/h1b-sponsors-2026.md).

## Checking one employer

Search by the legal name the employer files under, not the brand. Amazon files under at least four names with their own tax numbers: Amazon.com Services LLC, Amazon Web Services, Inc., Amazon Development Center U.S., Inc. and Amazon Data Services, Inc. MyVisaJobs lists them separately too.

Then look at the roles. A count of 5,000 cases says little about your title in your city. Each employer page in [our H-1B and PERM data](https://specstream.ai/data/hiring) lists the roles the employer filed, with worksite, offered wage and prevailing wage, from certified cases decided October 1, 2022 through June 30, 2026, and links each role to the Department of Labor file it came from.

The [H-1B and PERM list](https://specstream.ai/data/hiring) holds 175,300 employers with certified H-1B and PERM cases. The first 200 rows are free. All 175,300 rows cost $1,833, and new rows arrive each week for $117.26 a month.

## Source and method

The Department of Labor counts come from the labor condition application disclosure files of the Office of Foreign Labor Certification, on its [performance data page](https://www.dol.gov/agencies/eta/foreign-labor/performance): the four quarterly files of fiscal 2025, and the fiscal 2026 file through the third quarter, whose newest decision is dated June 30, 2026. Each case is counted once, by case number, and each employer is grouped by its federal employer identification number. A case certified and later withdrawn counts as certified.

The MyVisaJobs numbers are as printed on its report page on November 12, 2026, which says it is "Based on FY2025 employer filings (latest full year of data)." A labor condition application is not a visa: one case can cover several positions, and USCIS decides the petition that follows.
