H-1B sponsorship profile
Jpmorgan Chase certifies 16,363 H-1B / E-3 wage filings through FY2026 — filing volume cooling. Below, how those offers compare to the legal prevailing-wage floor each role must clear.
Median certified offer runs 15% above the floor.
The rest are set exactly at the prevailing wage — legal, and common among high-volume filers.
vs. $128K prevailing-wage floor.
Seniority mix (OES wage level)
Filing volume by fiscal year
Filed across 5 legal entities under this brand — largest: JPMorgan Chase & Co. (12,580).
Every H-1B role carries a legally required prevailing-wage floor (the OES rate for that occupation, area, and level). The offered wage on the certified filing must meet or exceed it — so “% above floor” distinguishes employers who genuinely pay a premium from those who file at the minimum.

Green-card sponsorship record
Jpmorgan Chase has 1,519 certified permanent-residency (PERM) applications on the federal record through FY2026 — filing volume rising. The question this answers: does this employer put workers on the path to a green card, or only on visas?

Two public records, side by side
What Jpmorgan Chase filed with state workforce agencies, next to what it filed with the U.S. Department of Labor in the same period. The record speaks for itself.
Jpmorgan Chase filed 12 WARN notices in CA, NJ, TX between Dec 22, 2024 and Aug 21, 2026, covering at least 1,286 workers per the published counts (source: official state WARN filings). 3 are tied to the employer's federal filings; the rest are matched by the employer name on the notice.
- Aug 21, 2026· TX· 244 workersOfficial source
- Aug 19, 2026· NJ· 63 workersOfficial source
- Aug 3, 2026· NJ· 51 workersOfficial source
In the same period, DOL received 300 permanent-residency (PERM) applications from the employer that were later certified, of which 26 attested to a layoff in the same occupation and area within the preceding six months (source: DOL OFLC, Form ETA-9089 disclosure data).
The PERM layoff question (Form ETA-9089, Section G) is scoped to the specific occupation and area of intended employment — it is not evidence of a company-wide layoff, and an application without the attestation is not a contradiction of a WARN notice. The two records are shown side by side without asserting any causal link. PERM disclosures lag receipt — applications received recently are largely still pending, so in-window certified counts are floors, not totals.
What this data is — and isn't
These bands come from certified H-1B Labor Condition Application disclosures — the base salary employers commit to on the record. They exclude equity, bonus, and benefits, and they cover only roles companies sponsor, which skews technical. Read them as a conservative, citable floor on what Jpmorgan Chase pays — not total compensation. Our sources.
