H-1b Job Training Grants awarded by Department of Labor

USAspending.gov records $617,891,841.41 in H-1b Job Training Grants obligations awarded by the Department of Labor. That figure is a CFDA 17.268 × agency 1601 join, not an outlay and not an H-1B visa caseload, a named-employer roster, or a trainee headcount. In this extract the pair cell $617,891,841.41 matches the program-wide obligation total $617,891,841.41. The extract lists 153 awards on the pair. The packet publishes no fiscal year.

  • Award rows are 17.268 training actions tagged to agency 1601, not a visa census.

  • Figures are obligations, not outlays. FEC donations do not fund this cell.

H-1B Training × Labor is CFDA 17.268, not a visa census

This page is a join: H-1b Job Training Grants (CFDA 17.268) and the Department of Labor (agency 1601). $617,891,841.41 is the obligation sum on that pair. It is not the government-wide assistance total, not every CFDA on All programs, and not cash already paid. Correlation is not causation: a large pair cell does not prove the Department of Labor caused activity described by the program title, or the reverse. Campaign-finance tables are a different dataset; FEC donations do not fund these USAspending obligations.

/programs/17.268/ is the program parent without an awarding-agency filter. /agencies/1601/ is the agency parent without this CFDA filter. /ties/ lists other pairs and /programs/ lists other CFDA hubs. A H-1b Job Training Grants award tagged to a different awarding agency sits outside this cell even if the CFDA is still 17.268. A Department of Labor award on a different CFDA sits outside even if the topic sounds related. One hundred fifty-three awards is not 153 unique training providers. Competitive rounds and modifications add rows.

H-1b Job Training Grants as the program side

CFDA 17.268 is H-1b Job Training Grants. Confusing this join with Reentry Employment 17.270, International Labor 17.401, or a USCIS visa dashboard would be a different table. Packet facts on the program side are the name H-1b Job Training Grants, number 17.268, and program-wide obligations $617,891,841.41. This packet lists no award recipients and no contractor names. Any other vendor, school, tribe, carrier, or grantee list would be invented.

Department of Labor as the awarding-agency side

Awarding-agency code 1601 is the Department of Labor. It is not a bureau split inside that department, not a place-of-performance state, and not a NAICS industry. In this extract the pair cell $617,891,841.41 matches the program-wide obligation total $617,891,841.41. Do not treat the program-wide $617,891,841.41 as if it were automatically the pair headline when the two figures differ. When they match, equality still does not name recipients.

Department of Labor shows how H-1b Job Training Grants sits beside other CFDAs the Department of Labor awards. This packet has no outlay total, no recipient roster, and no fiscal-year split. Grantee names, occupation targets, or visa-petition counts are unpublished. Provider names, occupation targets, and visa counts are unpublished on this packet.

153 awards behind the H-1B–Labor cell

The extract lists 153 awards on the H-1B Training × Labor pair. A mid-size training-grant file: 153 awards against a large obligation total. Dividing $617,891,841.41 by 153 yields about $4.04 million per award — a quotient of two packet facts, not a typical invoice and not a median. Unique recipients are unpublished. Modifications can add rows without naming a new organization. 153 is not an H-1B visa caseload, a named-employer roster, or a trainee headcount.

153 is the pair’s award-record count in this extract, not a published recipient census. Unique vendors and places of performance are unpublished. Do not read 153 as 153 finished projects under H-1B Training.

H-1B training obligations are not stipends already paid

An obligation is a legal commitment. An outlay is a payment. $617,891,841.41 is the former. Citing it as cash already cleared over-reads the field. The join cannot say that the Department of Labor specialized in h-1b training because of federal demand. Keep $617,891,841.41 labeled as H-1b Job Training Grants obligations awarded by the Department of Labor. It is not an H-1B visa caseload, a named-employer roster, or a trainee headcount. The packet publishes no fiscal year, so this page does not invent one.
