California Institute of Technology/Jet Propulsion Laboratory
California Institute of Technology/Jet Propulsion Laboratory made 40 filings covering 40 positions in this release. Across them it committed to pay at least a median of $128,211 a year. 40 of those 40 state a minimum and no maximum, which is what an employer is required to file — it is the floor it is bound to, not a salary offered.
Green-card sponsorship
California Institute of Technology/Jet Propulsion Laboratory has filed no permanent labour certifications in this release. That is the first step of an employment-based green card, so on this data there is no sign it sponsors one — though a release covers a fiscal year, and an employer that sponsored earlier would not appear here.

A wage is shown against the prevailing wage for the library year the filing itself cites, not the year current today — measured against the wrong year, a correctly-filed wage reads as underpaid.

One email when California Institute of Technology/Jet Propulsion Laboratory appears in a new quarterly release, or files a permanent labour certification — which is the signal that it sponsors green cards.
