The data report totals of approved petitions, split by employment type (continuing and initial) and class preference (L1A, L1B, and LZ blanket petitions). Small values under 10 are aggregated to reduce de-anonymization risk, with “D” withheld values protecting privacy. Exclusions apply for employers lacking tax IDs.","| \u003Cbr>Approved L1 Petitions by Employer Fiscal Year 2015 |  |  |  |  |  |  |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Source: USCIS. Data as of Aug. 15, 2017. Notes: All data are based on approved petitions during the fiscal year. Per USCIS best practices, units of less than 10 are aggregated so as to limit the possibility of the de-anonymization of data. \"D\" represents data withheld to protect privacy. \"Employer Industry\" is based on the employer NAICS code, not job code. Some employer industry information is missing from our data system and thus left blank. Employers without tax identification numbers in our system were excluded. While some company names may appear multiple times, USCIS enters data as listed on the petition and does not combine companies, even where the names are the same, because in all cases the employer tax identification numbers are different on the petition. The L-1Anonimmigrant classification refers to intracompany transfers of corporate managers and executives. The L-1B nonimmigrant classification refers to intracompany transfers of employees who possess “specialized knowledge.” The LZ classification refers to “blanket” L petitions and may be used by entities involved in commercial trade or services. While the term “L-1” is used for visa issuance and admission purposes, USCIS uses the “A” and “B” distinctions internally for statistical and other purposes. |  |  |  |  |  |  |\n| EMPLOYER TAX ID\u003Cbr>(Last 4 Digits) | EMPLOYER NAME | EMPLOYER INDUSTRY | TOTAL APPROVED\u003Cbr>PETITIONS | EMPLOYMENT\u003Cbr>TYPE | CLASS PREFERENCE | APPROVED PETITIONS BY CLASS PREFERENCE |\n| 9806 | TATA CONSULTANCY SVCS LTD | Custom Computer Programming Services | 1606 | Continuing | L1A | 809 |\n|  |  |  |  | Continuing | L1B | 98 |\n|  |  |  |  | Initial | L1A | 691 |\n|  |  |  |  | Initial | L1B | D |\n| 4155 | COGNIZANT TECH SOLNS US CORP | Computer Systems Design Services | 1079 | Continuing | L1A | 268 |\n|  |  |  |  | Continuing | L1B | 67 |\n|  |  |  |  | Continuing | LZ | D |\n|  |  |  |  | Initial | L1A | 678 |\n|  |  |  |  | Initial | L1B | 65 |\n| 1430 | IBM INDIA PRIVATE LIMITED | Custom Computer Programming Services Related | 267 | Continuing | L1A | 148 |\n|  |  |  |  | Continuing | L1B | 19 |\n|  |  |  |  | Initial | L1A | 77 |\n|  |  |  |  | Initial | L1B | 23 |\n| 2661 | SCHLUMBERGER TECHNOLOGY CORP | Support Activities for Oil and Gas Operations | 224 | Continuing | L1A | 105 |\n|  |  |  |  | Continuing | L1B | 84 |\n|  |  |  |  | Initial | L1A | D |\n|  |  |  |  | Initial | L1B | 34 |\n| 1985 | IBM CORPORATION | Custom Computer Programming Services Related | 203 | Continuing | L1A | 70 |\n|  |  |  |  | Continuing | L1B | 59 |\n|  |  |  |  | Initial | L1A | 29 |\n|  |  |  |  | Initial | L1B | 45 |\n| 0235 | INFOSYS LTD | Custom Computer Programming Services | 165 | Continuing | L1A | 130 |\n|  |  |  |  | Continuing | L1B | 26 |\n|  |  |  |  | Initial | L1A | D |\n|  |  |  |  | Initial | L1B | D |\n| 4513 | DELOITTE CONSULTING LLP |  | 151 | Continuing | L1A | 42 |\n|  |  |  |  | Continuing | L1B | 29 |\n|  |  |  |  | Initial | L1A | 11 |\n|  |  |  |  | Initial | L1B | 69 |\n| 4401 | WIPRO LIMITED | Custom Computer Programming Services | 138 | Continuing | L1A | 104 |\n|  |  |  |  | Continuing | L1B | 22 |\n|  |  |  |  | Initial | L1A | 12 |\n| 2696 | TECH MAHINDRA AMERICAS INC | Custom Computer Programming Services | 134 | Continuing | L1A | 64 |\n|  |  |  |  | Continuing | L1B | 37 |\n|  |  |  |  | Initial | L1A | 28 |\n\n\n|  |  |  |  | Initial | L1B | D |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| 3454 | OPTUM SERVICES INC | Computer Systems Design Services | 116 | Continuing | L1A | D |\n|  |  |  |  | Continuing | L1B | 50 |\n|  |  |  |  | Initial | L1A | D |\n|  |  |  |  | Initial | L1B | 62 |\n| 3581 | GOOGLE INC | Computer Systems Design Services | 114 | Continuing | L1A | 88 |\n|  |  |  |  | Continuing | L1B | D |\n|  |  |  |  | Initial | L1A | 14 |\n|  |  |  |  | Initial | L1B | D |\n| 9005 | EXXON MOBIL CORPORATION | Crude petroleum and natu","cbCaiaVm7E9rMsLp","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiaVm7E9rMsLp","pdf",5951707,1,324,"English","en",105,"# Employer- and industry-level summary\n## Definitions and data handling notes\n## Petition totals by employment type\n## Petition breakdown by class preference","[{\"question\":\"What does the dataset measure for fiscal year 2015?\",\"answer\":\"It compiles USCIS-approved L1 petitions during fiscal year 2015, reported at the employer level.\"},{\"question\":\"How are employment type and class preference categorized?\",\"answer\":\"Employment type is split into continuing versus initial, while class preference is split into L1A, L1B, and LZ for blanket L petitions.\"},{\"question\":\"Why are some values shown as “D” or omitted?\",\"answer\":\"Values under 10 are aggregated to limit de-anonymization, and “D” indicates data withheld to protect privacy.\"}]","Approved L1 Petitions by Employer Fiscal Year 2015 -
