Visa Wage Index

West Virginia University

West Virginia University made 136 filings covering 136 positions in this release. Across them it committed to pay at least a median of $90,000 a year. 136 of those 136 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

West Virginia University filed 25 permanent labour certifications between 2025-11-06 and 2026-06-03, of which 23 were certified. That is the step an employment-based green card starts with, so this employer does sponsor them.

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.

Where these workers are placed

Filings that name a secondary entity — a client site the worker works at rather than the employer's own premises.
