FIS
FISThe Filing Footprint Is Bigger Than One Legal Name
FIS needs to be read through its public employer-name boundary: FIS Management Services, LLC, the filing arm of Fidelity National Information Services, in the DOL records.
Across FY2020 through FY2025, those rows add up to 3,714 Labor Condition Applications. Including the FY2026 partial-year rows, the total reaches 3,794. FY2025 alone accounts for 525 LCA filings.
The USCIS series shown here totals 766 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.
6 total denials across all years (0.2% of filings) - too small to display on this chart.
The Employer Boundary Drives the Count
Fis Management Services, LLC 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 897 filings. FY2026 currently shows 80 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
FIS runs the plumbing behind thousands of banks, and its H-1B filings are graded like plumbing parts: Software Engineer Senior, Software Engineer II, Software Engineer Specialist. The filings concentrate in Jacksonville, Charlotte, Cincinnati, and Durham, the mid-cost Southern hubs where banking back offices consolidated. This is the infrastructure version of the pattern this site documents: not a headline scandal, just a steady multi-thousand-filing base of leveled engineering roles at a company whose product is other banks' cost reduction.
The public workforce story belongs next to the filing volume, but it does not turn every LCA into a replacement claim.
No H-1B enforcement action against FIS appears in the records used here. Filing volumes and wages are from public DOL records.
The Labor-Market Signal Is in the Job Mix
The leading occupation is Software Developers, and the leading job title is Software Engineer Senior; 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 $139,671, compared with an average prevailing-wage benchmark of $116,713. That is a $22,958 spread over the legal wage floor.
Where the Filings Reach the U.S. Labor Market
Jacksonville, Fl leads the mapped worksite list with 757 rows for this employer boundary.
Green Cards Add the Long-Term Tie
The PERM layer adds 240 labor-certification cases from FY2020 through FY2025, including 55 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.

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.
