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 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.

2.38 entries

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

  • Level I (entry)1×7.1% of filings (4)
  • Level II2×64.3% of filings (36)
  • Level III3×12.5% of filings (7)
  • Level IV (expert)4×16.1% of filings (9)

28.6% 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 25, 2026; effective for FY2027 (DHS weighted selection, eff. Feb 27 2026); subject to ongoing litigation.
