Morgan Stanley holds certified LCA windows covering 900 worker positions today (634 active cases, 388 filed as new employment, median attested base $200,000), with windows running as far as September 2029.
A certified LCA is the government-filed permission to employ for the stated period — not a live job posting, and never a count of hires. From the DOL disclosure corpus, computed against today's date.
Permanent labor certifications (PERM)
The Department of Labor step of employment-based green-card sponsorship. A certification is DOL's determination on the labor market test — the first of three federal steps, not a green card granted.
Petition outcomes, by fiscal year
USCIS Employer Data Hub. Outcomes lag attestations by one to two fiscal years — never read these as a conversion rate on current filings.
