Search pages, datasets, and tools
WorkVisaInsights has many powerful pages, but the right starting point depends on the question. This handbook shows which module to use, what signal each page carries, what to confirm next, and what mistakes to avoid.
Quick start
Pick the card that matches the job you are trying to do. Each one gives a short path instead of sending you into a large menu.
Workflow
Start with Employer 360, then open H1B, LCA, and PERM employer details when you need source-level proof.
Workflow
Use LCA salary intelligence because LCA records carry wage, worksite, SOC, and wage-level fields.
Workflow
Use Job 360 when you want one role view across employers, locations, certified wages, and fiscal years.
Workflow
Use Location 360 for the cross-dataset market view, then drill into LCA or H1B location pages.
Workflow
Start with PERM overview, then use tracker, processing, employers, denials, and pipeline pages.
Workflow
Use the wage calculator for net-pay estimates and the compare flow for two salary or state scenarios.
Guided paths
These are the paths most users actually follow: shortlist sponsors, validate compensation, plan PERM questions, or prepare source-backed analysis.
Build a practical target list when you are choosing where to apply, which sponsor to trust, and what salary range is realistic.

Research boundary
WorkVisaInsights turns public records into decision-support analytics. Important immigration decisions should still be reviewed with qualified counsel and official source materials.
