How it works
Understanding the H-1B Wage Worksheet
This worksheet organizes the wage facts used in an H-1B discussion without inventing a prevailing wage from broad location tiers. Enter the occupation, exact worksite, wage source, prevailing wage, employer actual wage when known, and offered base wage.
The result is context—not a legal compliance decision. The H-1B required wage is generally the higher of the applicable prevailing wage and the employer actual wage for similarly employed workers. Confirm the employer’s LCA, public-access file, and official wage source with a qualified professional.
