Compunnel
PRIVATEThe Filing Footprint Is Bigger Than One Legal Name
Compunnel needs to be read through its public employer-name boundary: Compunnel Software Group, Inc. employer-name variants in the DOL records; a staffing operation that places workers at client sites nationwide.
Across FY2020 through FY2025, those rows add up to 14,663 Labor Condition Applications. Including the FY2026 partial-year rows, the total reaches 15,133. FY2025 alone accounts for 2,281 LCA filings.
The USCIS series shown here totals 5,745 approvals across the available approval rows. Where FY2025 rows are initial approvals only, the page labels them that way. LCA filings are not headcount, hired workers, or proof that a specific American worker was replaced.
28 total denials across all years (0.2% of filings) - too small to display on this chart.
The Employer Boundary Drives the Count
Compunnel Software Group, Inc is the largest filing name, but the full public footprint depends on combining the affiliated employer rows used for this page.
The peak year in the full-year series is FY2021, with 3,675 filings. FY2026 currently shows 470 rows and should be read as a partial-year value, not as a final decline.
This site no longer charts H-1B filings as a share of workforce. The ratio can blur U.S. employees, global employees, contractors, and offshore delivery headcount into one denominator.
Rows with a disclosed U.S.-employee denominator available here: 0. The analysis now uses filings, approvals, wage, worksite, and title concentration instead.
Workforce Context, Kept in Bounds
In early 2026 the DOJ Civil Rights Division announced a $313,420 settlement with Compunnel Software Group under the Protecting U.S. Workers Initiative. Investigators found the company posted job advertisements restricted to H-1B visa holders, language like 'only H1-B Rate 58/HR', unlawfully discouraging U.S. citizens from applying. The settlement included $58,000 in back pay to a U.S. citizen excluded from a Python Developer role and $255,420 in civil penalties, plus mandatory recruiter training and monitoring. Assistant Attorney General Harmeet K. Dhillon said employers cannot exclude U.S. workers from the labor force based on citizenship. Weeks after the fine, American Bazaar reported another H-1B-only posting had surfaced.
The public workforce story belongs next to the filing volume, but it does not turn every LCA into a replacement claim.
The settlement resolved hiring-discrimination allegations; Compunnel did not admit to replacing specific U.S. workers, and the filing volumes shown here are from public DOL records.
The Labor-Market Signal Is in the Job Mix
The leading occupation is Software Developers, Applications, and the leading job title is Software Developer; those roles show what part of the labor market the filings reach.
For FY2025, the average H-1B wage in the filtered salary extract is $112,173, compared with an average prevailing-wage benchmark of $102,821. That is a $9,352 spread over the legal wage floor.
Where the Filings Reach the U.S. Labor Market
Durham, Nc leads the mapped worksite list with 1,068 rows for this employer boundary.
Green Cards Add the Long-Term Tie
The PERM layer adds 2,019 labor-certification cases from FY2020 through FY2025, including 374 in FY2025.
PERM records are a different process from H-1B petitions, but they matter because the sponsorship timeline can tie a worker to an employer for years.

- H-1B approvals: USCIS H-1B Employer Data Hub CSV rows for FY2020-FY2023, plus FY2025 hub initial approvals where available.
- PERM data: DOL OFLC PERM disclosure rows mapped with the same employer-name boundary.

Caveat: LCA filings are not H-1B petitions or hired workers. FY2025 USCIS hub rows are initial approvals only, so denial rates are not computed for those rows.
