FY2027 Lottery Entry Weighting

Under the FY2027 weighted H-1B selection, a cap-subject registration earns pool entries equal to its OEWS wage level — Level IV gets 4×the entries of Level I. More entries mean proportionally better odds, but the actual odds also depend on the national applicant pool, which is unknown until the draw runs — so this card shows the entry weighting, not a chance of being selected.

1.78 entries

Average lottery entries per registration for this role and area under FY2027 weighting (1 = entry-level, 4 = highest).

Level I (entry)1×29.3% of filings (234)
Level II2×64.1% of filings (511)
Level III3×5.5% of filings (44)
Level IV (expert)4×1.1% of filings (9)

6.6% of level-tagged filings here are Level III–IV (3–4 entries each). The draw stays beneficiary-centric: one person is one unit no matter how many employers register them, and if the same beneficiary is registered at different wage levels, the lowest level sets the weight.

Rules as of July 24, 2026; effective for FY2027 (DHS weighted selection, eff. Feb 27 2026); subject to ongoing litigation.

Bars are LCA filing-level counts per fiscal year (not distinct cases; they don’t sum to the headline total). The latest FY is a partial year — shown hatched/faded with a dashed median line, not a completed trend point. Earlier years may be affected by SOC occupation-code revisions, so volumes aren’t strictly comparable across the full range.

Recent decision years can be depressed by the PERM adjudication backlog — recently-filed cases aren’t decided yet, so they are absent rather than denied. Any hatched years are this settling tail, not reduced sponsorship.

Median wait for decidedPERM cases (decision minus received date), by decision year — a severity signal. Years with fewer than 10decided cases are omitted (a tiny-sample median is noise). Because only decided cases are disclosed, the true current wait — including cases still pending — is longer.

Counts are Certified PERM labor certifications (denied and withdrawn cases excluded), grouped by DOL decision fiscal year. Processing time covers decided cases only, so the true current wait — including cases still pending — is longer.
