Overview

Update(5/19/26): In fiscal year 2026, Ust Global filed 286 LCAs for H-1B visas, no labor petitions for green cards, and no requests for prevailing wage determination.

Important Update(12/16/2025): We’ve recently added H-1B visa approval and denial history from USCIS(2017–2025) and H-1B visa petition locations to provide a more complete view of employment-based immigration. Previously, our data included only Labor Condition Applications (LCAs) certified by the U.S. Department of Labor.
For example, in fiscal year 2025, Ust Global filed 609 Form I-129 petitions for H-1B visas. Of these, 604 were approved and 5 were denied.

Ust Global Inc. filed 871 labor condition applications (LCAs) for H-1B visas and 52 labor certifications (LCs) for green cards during fiscal year 2025. Ust Global was ranked number 83 among all visa sponsors. Additionally, 3 LCAs were denied or withdrawn during the same period.

Before Ust Global can hire foreign workers, whether permanently or temporarily, it must submit labor certifications to the Department of Labor (DOL). These certifications confirm compliance with wage requirements for the specified job locations.The reports below summarize Labor Condition Applications (LCA) for H-1B visas and Labor Certifications (LC) for green cards filed by Ust Global. This data represents only the number of applications submitted and does not guarantee visa approvals or worker hires.

The LCA data includes applications for various purposes: new employment, continuation or changes to previously approved employment, new concurrent employment, changes in employer, and amended petitions. Typically, only LCAs for new employment require an H-1B visa cap if the employer is not cap-exempt.For example, Ust Global submitted 1,261 LCAs and LCs during fiscal year 2025. However, this figure does not necessarily reflect the number of foreign workers hired, as visa applications can be denied. Additionally, employees renewing or transferring H-1B visas or changing work locations may need to file new LCAs.

The DOL generally certifies more than three times the number of foreign worker requests compared to the H-1B visas issued by USCIS. Therefore, there is no direct correlation between the number of workers certified by the DOL and the H-1B visas issued by the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS).

* Why are the numbers different? LCAs are a prerequisite to filing H-1B visa petitions, but not all certified LCAs lead to actual H-1B filings. Similarly, one LCA can support multiple visa petitions (e.g., for extensions, amendments, or changes in employer). Therefore, visa totals may differ significantly from LCA totals.
Moreover, employers sometimes use different names when submitting LCAs and H-1B visa petitions. This can cause discrepancies in our system. To get a complete and accurate picture, please use the search function to explore both LCA and visa data.
Total H-1B includes all types of visa petitions: new employment, continuation, change of employer, as well as other actions not listed in the table, such as concurrent filings and amendments.

★☆☆☆☆ - DOL AUDIT GOING ON - - - 7/26/2017 - flag as inappropriate - comment
A DOL Audit is going on at this employer business location. This location will be soon closing with several H1 B employees leaving. Also two disgruntled employees have complaint about the abuse and exploitation of wage/hour rules and are demanding back wages. This company only works on a percentage basis and does not follow any DOL Wage /Hour laws. It will soon be asked to pay huge fines/ penalties.

      - 10/31/2017 - DOL Audit on UST Global found serious issues. Forget your GC and Forget H1b Extension. They have been ordered to pay millions on back wages. B1 visa violations going on.

B1 issue:
They call B1 visa candidates for6 months (I94 is for 6 months), they bill client $150- $200 per hr for his/her services. They pay candidate a daily allowance of $50-$75 per day. No one pay taxes as the candidate is said to be paid as expense reimbursement. Big Scam. America Looses. America looses a JOB, America looses Taxes and Knowledge, opportunity.

BRING THIS COMPANY DOWN. THEY ARE FRAUD.

★☆☆☆☆ - Life time experience - - johnmichael - 9/24/2016 - flag as inappropriate - comment
I worked for UST global and It's terrible and they never give privacy to employee. UST guys always shadow me. I never suggest you guys to work in UST global. In my carrier I worked for big clients but I never see these much waste company. You will get very less pay and you will get to much work.



★☆☆☆☆ - dont spoil your career life here at onsite - - - 4/22/2012 - flag as inappropriate - comment
I used work here at onsite and now moved out. The delivery managers and senior management do not stand by the values. They naturally lie to you about visa/GC processing. They would delay intentionally.
     Jincy - 9/8/2016 - Tis review is about EBS Minds and iEratech. Fraud companies.
I have lodged a complaint with uscis and Department of Labor in USA so that in future companies like EBSMINDS (www . ebsminds . c om/) and iERATECH does not flourish in USA . The culprits are Manmohan Akkavaram, Brijesh Vyas and Raghu MUTUKULA. All these 3 people are responsible for taking the money from me (USD 4000) for processing the H1B Visa. After they took the mopney , they have not moved my Visa further and refused to send me for H1B Visa stamping even thought the visa was picked in lottery and Approved. I hope they are investigated by USCIS and DOL and procescuted. I am ready to be a whisteblower and provide evidence in any court of law. Please contact me in India at +91 709319 8849


EBSMinds also goes by the name of ebs-minds IT inc, so beware of this fraud company

★☆☆☆☆ - visa team in ust - - - 11/30/2011 - flag as inappropriate - comment
The visa team in ust think that they are running the company and the USCIS.so if you have any onsite dream, please dont come to this company.



★☆☆☆☆ - Lousy - Run away!! - - - 5/22/2011 - flag as inappropriate - comment
A very good place for a stop-gap arrangement.
Bargain hard and you will get your desired package.
Always be aware that this is just an another glorified consultancy.


The support staff (Admin/HR...) think that they are doing a favour by performing their job.
The company is very much money minded. So be aware of your Project status.
No process followed. Ad-hoc decisions and complete unaccountability at many levels.
