The Filing Footprint Is Bigger Than One Legal Name

Fiserv needs to be read through its public employer-name boundary: Fiserv Solutions, LLC plus Fiserv Investment Solutions employer-name variants in the DOL records. Fiserv Global Services, its India-linked delivery arm, files separately and is classified H-1B dependent.

Across FY2020 through FY2025, those rows add up to 2,667 Labor Condition Applications. Including the FY2026 partial-year rows, the total reaches 2,730. FY2025 alone accounts for 418 LCA filings.

The USCIS series shown here totals 1,241 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.

H-1B Approval Rate Over Time

The Employer Boundary Drives the Count

Fiserv Solutions, 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 622 filings. FY2026 currently shows 63 rows and should be read as a partial-year value, not as a final decline.

Workforce Share Not Used
Metric intentionally suppressed

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.

Avg H-1B Salary vs BLS Market Rate

Workforce Context, Kept in Bounds

Fiserv is the top H-1B employer in Wisconsin by application count, and its structure tells the outsourcing story in miniature: the main Fiserv Solutions entity files thousands of leveled engineering roles like Software Development Engineering - Advisor I across Alpharetta, Berkeley Heights, Omaha, and Sunnyvale, while its Fiserv Global Services delivery arm is a formally H-1B dependent employer with a median sponsored salary of $74,700, barely half the BLS software-developer median. Same logo, two-tier labor model.

The public workforce story belongs next to the filing volume, but it does not turn every LCA into a replacement claim.

The $74,700 median applies to the separately filing Fiserv Global Services entity; the averages charted on this page cover the main Fiserv Solutions boundary. No enforcement action appears in the records used here.

The Labor-Market Signal Is in the Job Mix

The leading occupation is Software Developers, and the leading job title is Software Development Engineering - Advisor I; 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 $140,178, compared with an average prevailing-wage benchmark of $139,581. That is a $597 spread over the legal wage floor.

Green Cards Add the Long-Term Tie

The PERM layer adds 380 labor-certification cases from FY2020 through FY2025, including 81 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.

Data Sources
  • LCA filings and salary data: DOL OFLC disclosure rows mapped by the employer-name boundary used for this investigation.
  • 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.
  • Ellis employer profiles for Fiserv Solutions LLC and Fiserv Global Services Inc., retrieved July 2026; Wisconsin H-1B employer rankings via aggregator data.
  • BLS wage comparison: OEWS May 2023 national median for software developers.

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.
