Permanent residence for jobs that need less than 2 years of training. This employer filed 1 PERM application. Waits for this category are long (often several years).

Salary vs prevailing wage
Level II (qualified)Physical Therapist Assistants · Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim, CA. Annual prevailing wages set by the Department of Labor (OFLC).
| Level | Prevailing wage | H-1B lottery odds* |
|---|---|---|
| Level I | $65,062 | ~15% |
| Level II | $73,341 | ~31% |
| Level III | $81,598 | ~46% |
| Level IV | $89,877 | ~61% |
This job pays $74,880–$83,200 a year (converted from an hourly rate, 2,080 hours) — that's Level II (qualified). In the wage-weighted H-1B lottery a Level II registration gets 2 entries; estimated selection chance about 31%.
* Odds are DHS projections for the FY2027 wage-weighted lottery (actual results vary by year and employer). Since the FY2027 cap season the H-1B lottery is weighted by wage level: Level I = 1 entry, II = 2, III = 3, IV = 4. The level is set by the offered wage against the prevailing wage for the occupation and worksite. Separately, a $100,000 fee for new H-1B petitions for workers outside the US was announced in 2025; as of September 2026 a federal court ruling keeps it unenforceable while appeals continue — check the current status.
