The FY2027 President's Budget requests $60.0M for H-1B Fees, within Labor's H-1B Fees account. That is up 0.0% on the FY2026 figure of $60.0M, which is the enacted appropriation.
FY2025–FY2027
| Fiscal year | Basis | Amount |
|---|---|---|
| FY2025 | enacted | $60.0M |
| FY2026 | enacted | $60.0M |
| FY2027 | request | $60.0M |
Bases are separate columns and are never summed into one figure.
Labor discretionary budget authority
From the OMB Public Budget Database — clean, summable, and the figure to cite for an agency total. It is the whole of Labor's discretionary request, not a total of the parsed lines above, and this page never adds the two together.
What this funds
Funds Wage and Hour Division enforcement of labor protections for the H-1B temporary skilled-worker program, financed by H-1B visa application fees.
Extracted from Wage and Hour Division, p. 9. Verbatim; nothing here is paraphrased.
Contracts funded by this line
6 linked contracts. These are obligations — lifetime awarded money — and they are not comparable to the request above and are never added to it. No total is shown: an award linked to several lines is counted in full on each, so the sum would not be a fact.

Linked contracts are a floor, not a census. Coverage is bounded by how distinctively a program is named and, for performer links, to RDT&E and Procurement — O&M and military construction publish no performers. Budget figures are FY2027 request dollars; contract figures are obligations. The two measure different things and must never be summed together.
