US data shows few Indian IT workers on green card track

2026-10-09 · 1 source · Mint Companies

In short

US data shows Indian IT companies got fewer than 1,400 permanent labour requests between October 2024 and September 2025. That was less than 2% of 117,849 requests filed in that period.

This matters because it shows only a small part of Indian IT workers are on the US green card track. The reporting does not say why the share is so low.

What the reporting says

US data shows Indian IT companies collectively received fewer than 1,400 permanent labour requests, less than 2% of 117,849 filed between October 2024 and September 2025. The reporting says the numbers point to a small share of Indian IT workers on the US green card path. It is not stated in the available reporting why the share is so low or how the trend may change.

Why it matters

US data shows Indian IT companies collectively received fewer than 1,400 permanent labour requests, or less than 2% of 117,849 filings, between October 2024 and September 2025. The available reporting links this to the green card journey for Indian workers in US IT firms. The immediate implication is that only a small number of workers appear to be on that path, but the reporting does not explain the cause or any policy change.
