Common questions

Which companies sponsor H-1B visas in Chicago?

By certified applications from July 2025 to June 2026, the largest are Ernst & Young U.S. LLP, The University of Chicago and University of Illinois Chicago. 1,792 employers filed for jobs in Chicago in total.

What is an LCA and how is it linked to the H-1B visa?

A Labor Condition Application is filed by the employer with the Department of Labor before it can file an H-1B petition. It states the job, the place of work and the pay. A certified LCA does not guarantee a visa.

Does a company on this list have open jobs now?

Not necessarily. The data shows past filings, including extensions and transfers for current employees. Check the employer's careers page for current vacancies.
