Salary figures
The salary figures presented on this site reflect offered base wages stated on certified H-1B Labor Condition Applications (LCAs). They do not represent total compensation, which may include signing bonuses, annual bonuses, equity grants, or overtime pay, nor do they reflect actual post-hire wages paid. Furthermore, LCA filing counts represent the number of labor condition applications filed with the Department of Labor, not the number of workers actually hired or visas issued.
Take-home estimates
Take-home pay estimates are simplified calculations based on single filer status, federal and state standard deductions, FICA taxes, and average employer health insurance premiums. They do not account for local city taxes, pre-tax 401(k) contributions, dependent exemptions, or other itemized deductions. All estimates are tied to a specific tax year and exchange rate reference date, which may differ from current financial conditions.
No advice
The content, tools, and estimates on this website are provided strictly for informational and educational purposes. Nothing on this site constitutes legal, tax, financial, investment, or immigration advice. Users should consult licensed attorneys, certified public accountants, or accredited immigration professionals for guidance on their individual circumstances.
Errors
While we strive for accuracy, errors may occur in government disclosure source files or during data extraction, normalization, and aggregation. We make no representations or warranties regarding the completeness or accuracy of the information provided. If you identify an error, please report it via our contact page.
Exchange rate and tax values
The exchange rate used for KRW figures is a reference value. You can change it in the calculator, and the default shown there is not a live rate. Tax values follow simplified rules for the tax year stated in the calculator and do not reflect your personal circumstances.
Limitation of liability
