Green Cards

While green card holders are granted lawful permanent residence in the United States, they are not U.S. citizens. A green card (officially known as a Permanent Resident Card) allows individuals to live and work in the United States but does not confer citizenship. Although green card holders contribute to the workforce, their presence creates additional job competition and reduces opportunities for American citizens.

Unlike visa holders, the U.S. government does not track the employment numbers of green card holders in American corporations, suggesting their presence in the workforce may be significant.

Detailed information about the number of individuals employed by specific companies under various immigration statuses, including those holding Form I-766/EAD, is typically unavailable due to privacy concerns and regulatory restrictions.

Below are links to view the relevant agencies:

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) publishes annual reports and data on immigration and naturalization trends, which may include statistics on employment-based immigration. However, these figures are typically not broken down by individual companies.

Department of Labor (DOL)

The DOL oversees aspects of employment-based immigration, including the Labor Condition Application (LCA) process for Visas. They publish reports on labor market trends and foreign labor certifications, which may indirectly relate to the employment of green card holders.

Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS)

The BLS collects data on employment trends and statistics in the United States. Although they do not specifically track Green Card holders by company, their reports on occupational employment and labor force characteristics provide valuable context.

Corporate Reports and Filings

Some large companies may disclose information about their workforce composition, including the number of foreign nationals or Green Card holders, in their annual reports or filings with regulatory bodies such as the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
