H-1B sponsorship profile: IBM Corporation. Across U.S. Department of Labor LCA disclosures, IBM Corporation filed 9,463 Labor Condition Applications covering 9,463 H-1B worker positions between fiscal year 2023 and fiscal year 2026. The employer’s DOL certification rate sits at 99.5% (9,420 certified of 9,463 filed), a useful proxy for how cleanly their prevailing-wage attestations pass the Labor Department’s preliminary review before USCIS adjudication.

Compensation spread. Offered wages on IBM Corporation’s H-1B petitions range from $53,643 at the low end to $465,960 at the high end, with a petition-weighted average of $124,296. That range reflects the mix of occupations the company sponsors, led by Application Developer (1,895 petitions at $199,680 avg), followed by Package Consultant and Application Architect. H-1B salaries reported on LCAs must meet or exceed the DOL prevailing wage for the role and worksite, so the spread also tracks wage-level geography and seniority.

Geographic footprint. IBM Corporation is headquartered in Durham, NC under NAICS code 54151, and places H-1B workers across 22 states, most heavily in NJ, TX, NY. Combined, these signals give a granular view of how one employer uses the H-1B program, volume, approval cleanliness, wage posture, and where the jobs actually sit on the map.

Where IBM Corporation ranks. By H-1B petition volume, IBM Corporation is #18 of 119,880 employers nationally and #1 of 2,377 employers headquartered in NC. That makes it the single largest H-1B sponsor headquartered in NC.
