H-1B sponsorship profile: Universities Space Research Association. Across U.S. Department of Labor LCA disclosures, Universities Space Research Association filed 25 Labor Condition Applications covering 25 H-1B worker positions between fiscal year 2023 and fiscal year 2026. The employer’s DOL certification rate sits at 100% (25 certified of 25 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 Universities Space Research Association’s H-1B petitions range from $72,000 at the low end to $149,032 at the high end, with a petition-weighted average of $104,991. That range reflects the mix of occupations the company sponsors, led by Scientist, Earth Sciences (7 petitions at $105,861 avg), followed by Software Engineer and Scientist, Planetary Sciences. 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. Universities Space Research Association is headquartered in Washington, DC under NAICS code 54171, and places H-1B workers across 4 states, most heavily in AL, CA, TX. 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 Universities Space Research Association ranks. By H-1B petition volume, Universities Space Research Association is #8,540 of 119,880 employers nationally and #39 of 1,005 employers headquartered in DC. Both ranks are computed live from the same underlying petition counts, not a separate estimate.
