H-1B activity in Virgin Islands. U.S. Department of Labor disclosure data shows 159 Labor Condition Applications filed on behalf of H-1B workers in Virgin Islands, spanning 33 distinct employers. DOL certified these petitions at a 93.7% rate, meaning the prevailing-wage and working-conditions attestations cleared preliminary review before USCIS took over final adjudication. That volume gives Virgin Islands a measurable footprint in the national H-1B program and a data-backed view of where foreign specialty-occupation workers are being placed on U.S. soil.

What employers are paying. The average offered wage on Virgin Islands H-1B petitions is $61,320. Because each LCA must meet or exceed the DOL prevailing wage for the specific role and worksite, this figure reflects genuine pay commitments rather than aspirational market surveys, and it varies with the mix of occupations, wage levels (I through IV), and metropolitan areas active in the state. The single most-sponsored occupation is Teachers and Instructors, All Other, which alone accounts for 29 petitions at an average of $44,422, followed by Secondary School Teachers, Except Special and Career/Technical Education and Librarians and Media Collections Specialists.

Who does the sponsoring. The top H-1B sponsor in Virgin Islands is US Virgin Islands Department o Education with 33 petitions at an average offered wage of $45,799, followed by University of the Virgin Islands, Diocese of St Thomas, LABMINDS STAFFING AND RECRUITING, LLC. Taken together, the 33 employers active in the state form a concrete picture of which industries and company sizes rely on H-1B sponsorship inside Virgin Islands. Because the data comes directly from DOL LCA disclosures (public record), each figure is auditable down to the individual petition, a meaningful contrast with anecdotal labor-market reporting.
