H-1B/LCA filing signal: As of source verification 2026-08-09, Qualcomm shows 1,884 imported DOL labor-condition rows through FY2026 Q3 on VisaSignal. The largest role bucket is Senior ASICS Engineer (54 rows). The largest worksite bucket is San Diego, CA (1,129 rows). Treat this as historical H-1B/LCA filing activity, not proof of USCIS petition approval or future sponsorship.

Wage range

Qualcomm H-1B reported wage range

Normalized from 1,857 imported LCA rows that state an annual pay unit — hourly, weekly, bi-weekly and monthly filings are excluded rather than converted. DOL-disclosed offered and prevailing wages still span different roles and worksites, so read the band as wage-distribution context, not a guaranteed offer or legal minimum.

27 of 1,884 matching rows with a wage figure are excluded (27 stating an hourly, weekly, bi-weekly or monthly unit) — DOL publishes the pay unit per row, and the figures are not interchangeable, so they are excluded rather than converted.

H-1B evidence checklist

How to use this Qualcomm LCA evidence

For searches like "Qualcomm H-1B", "Qualcomm LCA", or "does Qualcomm sponsor H-1B", read the filing count, role/worksite pattern, and status mix together before treating the employer as a lead.

Start with the official LCA count

For "Qualcomm H-1B" or "Qualcomm LCA" research, 1,884 imported DOL LCA rows through FY2026 Q3 show labor-condition activity attributed to this normalized employer name. Use the count as a historical filing signal, not a hiring promise.

Read source caveats

Check role and worksite fit

Senior ASICS Engineer (54 rows) and San Diego, CA (1,129 rows) are the strongest role and worksite signals. Compare those row-level patterns with the wage band before treating Qualcomm as relevant to your target role or location.

Separate DOL certification from USCIS approval

Certified represents 100% of the displayed LCA rows. DOL LCA certification is not USCIS H-1B petition approval, so read the status mix with row dates and source period before treating Qualcomm as a sponsor lead. Then compare the employer against the broader H-1B sponsor database before shortlisting.

How to read Qualcomm LCA results

For searches like "Qualcomm LCA", start with the official filing count, then compare role, worksite, wage, and status signals before opening individual rows.

Role signal

Senior ASICS Engineer is the largest imported role bucket with 54 matching rows.

Status signal

Certified is the largest observed case-status bucket, representing 100% of 100 displayed LCA rows.

Use the LCA case status guide to distinguish Certified, Certified-Withdrawn, Withdrawn, and Denied in public DOL rows.

Status mix is the share of displayed official DOL LCA rows by case outcome; for Qualcomm, Certified accounts for 100% of the recent LCA rows shown here as of source verification .

For "Qualcomm vs" H-1B searches, line up filing counts, median wages, top roles, and worksites against peer employers side by side.

Sponsors adjacent to Qualcomm

Employers with imported DOL LCA or PERM filings that also list California worksites, weighted toward overlapping roles. Shared filing footprints are a research and discovery signal, not a hiring or sponsorship guarantee.

Primary source

Where this LCA filing signal comes from

LCA rows for Qualcomm are imported from DOL OFLC LCA Disclosure Data, the official US Department of Labor disclosure dataset. See About data for source caveats and Source status for import freshness, or use the LCA and PERM database lookup to search records across employers, roles, SOC codes, cities, and states. To check whether a different company sponsors H-1B, run it through the H-1B sponsor checker or review the H-1B sponsor cost guide.

FAQ

Common questions

What does Qualcomm LCA mean on VisaSignal?

The Qualcomm LCA page summarizes imported Department of Labor labor-condition rows for this normalized employer, including roles, worksites, wages, case statuses, and source periods.

Is Qualcomm LCA activity the same as H-1B approval?

No. LCA certification is an official DOL labor-condition filing signal, but USCIS decides H-1B petitions separately. Use the page as employer research context, not as an approval record.

Is Qualcomm an H-1B sponsor?

Yes — Qualcomm has a documented H-1B filing history: official US Department of Labor disclosure data lists 1,884 H-1B labor condition application (LCA) records for this employer. The most recent imported disclosure period is FY2026 Q3. An LCA is the labor-condition step an employer must file with DOL before USCIS can approve an H-1B petition, so these rows are documented sponsorship activity — not a promise that Qualcomm will sponsor a new hire, and not evidence that any petition was approved. USCIS decides each petition separately. Verified against official DOL OFLC disclosure data on 2026-08-09.

Can I use this as a Qualcomm LCA lookup?

Yes. This Qualcomm LCA lookup view shows imported official DOL labor-condition rows for the employer, including job titles, worksites, wage fields, case statuses, and source periods. For a broader LCA lookup across employers, roles, SOC codes, cities, and states, use the LCA and PERM database lookup.

What H-1B salary range does Qualcomm report?

For searches like "Qualcomm H-1B salary", VisaSignal normalizes the imported LCA wage fields into a range — the 25th-to-75th-percentile band plus the lowest and highest observed values — instead of a single number. These are DOL-disclosed offered and prevailing wages spanning different roles, worksites, and wage units, so read the band as wage-distribution context, not a guaranteed offer or legal minimum.

Does an LCA certification mean an H-1B petition was approved?

No. A DOL-certified LCA is not the same as USCIS H-1B petition approval. It is an official labor-condition filing signal that should be interpreted with that limit.

Does a PERM certification mean a green card was approved?

No. PERM certification is one step in an employment-based green card process. It does not mean a green card, I-140 petition, or adjustment of status was approved.

Can this data prove an employer will sponsor a candidate?

No. Official filing history can show recent activity, roles, worksites, and wage signals, but it does not guarantee future sponsorship or predict legal outcomes.

LCA and PERM rows are filing signals, not USCIS approvals, green-card approvals, legal advice, or outcome predictions.
