Green Card - Permanent Residency

Minnetonka Public Schools

Minnetonka Public Schools employs the largest number of H-1B workers among traditional public school districts due to its Chinese immersion program offered at Scenic Heights and Excelsior Elementary Schools as well as at the middle and high school levels. In the past ten years the school district has filed 22 PERM Labor Certification applications.

Note: Before Minnetonka Public Schools can hire foreign workers permanently or temporarily, it must file labor certifications with the Department of Labor (DOL), demonstrating that it is paying the required wage for the positions in the geographic region where the jobs are located. Above table reports Labor Condition Application (LCA) for H1B visa and Labor Certification (LC) for green card filed by Minnetonka Public Schools. The data only indicates the number of applications filed by Minnetonka Public Schools. It does not mean that Minnetonka Public Schools actually got the visa and hired the workers.

Our LCA data includes LCA submitted for not only new employment, but also continuation or change in previously approved employment, new concurrent employment, change in employer and amended petition. Usually, only LCA for new employment needs H1B Visa quota if it is not cap-exempt.

Minnetonka Public Schools has applied for 47 LC and LCA from fiscal year 2015 to 2017. But this does not mean they really hired 47 foreign workers during this period. The visa applicatio
ns might have been denied. When an employee renews or transfers his H1B visa or change work location under some circumstances, he will also file a new LCA application.

Department of Labor (DOL) typically certifies more than 3 times the number of foreign work requests than the number of H1B visas issued by USCIS. So there is no one to one relationship between the number of workers certified by the DOL and the number of H1B work visas issued by the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS).
