Before Astir IT Solutions Inc can hire foreign workers, whether permanently or temporarily, it must submit labor certifications to the Department of Labor (DOL). These certifications confirm compliance with wage requirements for the specified job locations.The reports below summarize Labor Condition Applications (LCA) for H-1B visas and Labor Certifications (LC) for green cards filed by Astir IT Solutions Inc. This data represents only the number of applications submitted and does not guarantee visa approvals or worker hires.

The LCA data includes applications for various purposes: new employment, continuation or changes to previously approved employment, new concurrent employment, changes in employer, and amended petitions. Typically, only LCAs for new employment require an H-1B visa cap if the employer is not cap-exempt.For example, Astir IT Solutions Inc submitted 517 LCAs and LCs during fiscal years 2022 - 2024. However, this figure does not necessarily reflect the number of foreign workers hired, as visa applications can be denied. Additionally, employees renewing or transferring H-1B visas or changing work locations may need to file new LCAs.

The DOL generally certifies more than three times the number of foreign worker requests compared to the H-1B visas issued by USCIS. Therefore, there is no direct correlation between the number of workers certified by the DOL and the H-1B visas issued by the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS).

★★★★★ - Always approachable, immigration team at best. - - Sathish Kumar - 1/27/2023 - flag as inappropriate - comment

I have been in the USA for the past 6+ years, before joining Astir IT, did few H1B transfers and always received RFE. Only with the Astir IT I never received RFE for H1B transfer & amendments, and even for the H1 extension, after I140 as well. My GC process also went very smoothly. Always approachable & helpful!



★★★★★ - Thank You So Much for Your Guidance and Support. Astir IT. - - karthik - 1/25/2023 - flag as inappropriate - comment
I completed my MS and was in confused situation, unable to decide on the training courses or FTE job or consulting company. I contacted Astir IT. With their long history in the industry, they were able to guide me in the right path and supported me throughout my career. I am a happy employee since past 3 years, I got my H1 and visa stamping through them.



★★★★★ - Nice Company - - - 1/17/2019 - flag as inappropriate - comment
Good company to work for. Management was responsive, and the marketing team got me decent projects. HR was very helpful for my immigration concerns. Payscale was good.



★★★★★ - Sr. .NET Developer - - - 12/11/2018 - flag as inappropriate - comment
I am happy with Astir so far and plan on staying here. Management is quick to respond to queries and has been very open and helpful regarding visa sponsorship. The recruitment team has helped me get some projects, but I do get my own projects sometimes. I haven't had any issues with them, especially with pay, which I have had issues with other employers.



★★★★★ - Happy here for 6 years - - - 11/7/2018 - flag as inappropriate - comment
I have been working for Astir for more than 6 years and have been very happy. They have helped me through the immigration process and have provided me with a bunch of different training classes. I've always gotten good projects.



★★★★★ - Good company for IT consultants - - - 10/29/2018 - flag as inappropriate - comment
I have worked for a couple of IT consulting companies, and so far Astir has been good to me. I found a good project with them after taking a set of training courses. I have found that HR has been very transparent in helping me through my STEM requirements. I joined Astir on the recommendation of a classmate and have no complaints thus far.



★☆☆☆☆ - Fake Company - lot of fake resumes - - - 10/22/2018 - flag as inappropriate - comment
not a legitimate Company

Main Cheating Candidates:

Kanan Mehta: She is the HR and Immigration but as per the company roles they give the name to "BOB" (Signature guy) so the Department of Homeland security will think as a legitimate company.

She blackmails people status. If you are H1B with that company you will be tortured.

Ravi Shankar:Complete waster person. you will see the false promises of this person on the first day itself.

Suggestion to New Joiners especially OPT's this is not a worth company? if you are too needy that's your choice but you will be keep on faking your resume forever until you get green card.

This is the life you came to USA?

Coming to green card processing you guys have to pay $5000 at once and they mention the process will take two years to get I-140, does it make any sense?

Regarding H1B filing they don't have a lawyer, they do their own petitions, so there is a high chance of getting rejected.


Just my two cents don't join this company.










★★★★★ - Good Preferred Employer - - Sachin - 9/25/2018 - flag as inappropriate - comment
I transfered my H1 here a few months ago and have been very happy. A friend recommended Astir to me when I was looking for a new project. Astir got me interviews quickly. The rate is good, and the benefits are good.



★★★★★ - Astir has been good to me - - - 9/7/2018 - flag as inappropriate - comment
Astir has been a good employer. They got me a project pretty quickly, and at a good rate. I have referred several of my classmates. They are a good employer for recent graduates.



★★★★★ - I recommend working here - - - 8/21/2018 - flag as inappropriate - comment
I've never had any bad experiences working for Astir. I have been with Astir for almost 5 years and have always been placed on good projects with good customers. I've felt their marketing team is solid, and has gotten me quick interviews when needed. The HR department has been very helpful through my immigration process. Overall, they have been a good employer. If I were to think of anything they could improve on, I would say more formal training opportunities are needed.



★☆☆☆☆ - Fake Indian Consultancy - will use your Immigration status and blackmail you - - Naga - 7/19/2018 - flag as inappropriate - comment
Don't join, Don't join, Don't join.

This is the worst consultancy ever made a big mistake by joining here.

you will feel the difference on the first day itself.

Just don't fooled by seeing the rank it's just magic.

These people are not legitimate.

The person above showed as a contact is not the Real Contact, he exists but just a signature Indian smartness. The real person behind the scene is Kanan Mehta.

Coming to the marketing team.

Ravi Shankar is the main guy for this and do lot of false promises. Not even have one direct client.

The marketing team is horrible they don't even speak proper English

Everything is fake in here

Fake Resumes
Proxy Interviews


No opportunity for growth. They use you H1B immigration status and blackmail you.

Personal advice who got burnt my hands with them. Just don't join there are so many other consultancies that will do the professionally.

★★★★★ - One of the better H1 employers out there - - - 1/26/2015 - flag as inappropriate - comment
I transferred my H1 to Astir last year. I had a friend who worked for Astir, and he suggested to a few of our friends that we work their too.

They provide information much better than my old company and I haven't had any issues with payment. That is something I always had trouble with at other employers.

I like working here, and would suggest Astir to anyone who is looking to transfer their H1, or needs an H1.



★★★★★ - Good projects and H1B processing - - - 12/1/2014 - flag as inappropriate - comment
Astir is a good company to work for. I had a difficult time getting my H1 (was on OPT), and they helped me through all of the steps and responses. I had classmates who filed their visas through other companies, and a few had issues and ended up being denied.




★★★★☆ - Solid Company - - - 11/18/2014 - flag as inappropriate - comment
Hi,

I began working for Astir in 2011. I was on L1 and they filed my H1. They are also helping me with greencard processing. I have found them to be very open about their processes.

Since I joined the, I have been on the same project. One of my co-workers at the client site was looking for a new employer, so I suggested Astir. He is now working for them too. I definitely recommend Astir, especially if you are looking for visa processing.



★★★★★ - Good Company for F1'a - - - 5/7/2014 - flag as inappropriate - comment
Astir recruited me and helped me get my h1. I was on f1 and out of all the companies that contacted me, Astir was the only one that got me a position. They also filed my h1.



★★★★★ - You should work for Astir - - - 3/11/2014 - flag as inappropriate - comment
I started my career with Astir and have never had a reason to look to other companies. I always get good projects at my rate, and Astir helped me get my H1. The recruiting team always gets me good interviews with good vendors and clients when I'm off project and I'm never off project long. If you need your H1, definitely come to Astir.



★★★★☆ - I like working for Astir - - - 2/11/2014 - flag as inappropriate - comment
I have worked for astir for a few years. The recruiters have always gotten me good interviews, and I have always gotten positions for my rate. I began working for them when they helped me get my H1 when I was on OPT. I told a friend of mine to join Astir, and when he did, I got a bonus for sending him to Astir.



★★★★☆ - Astir helped me find a job in order to keep my H1 - - - 2/4/2014 - flag as inappropriate - comment
My employer gave me 2 weeks notice and I needed to find a project fast before I had to leave the country. Astir helped me find a job in a week's time; not to far from my home and at my current rate.

I was very pleased with the way Astir marketed my resume. I had interviews immediately, and they were able to find me a job fast. I have been happy with Astir ever since, as their recruiters have been consistent. I have had 2 other projects through Astir since then, and I tell anyone who is looking for sponsorship or to transfer their H1 to go to Astir.



★★★★★ - I recommend joining Astir - - - 1/16/2014 - flag as inappropriate - comment
I recommend joining Astir, especially if you are on OPT like I am.

I recently joined Astir, and they put me through a free training program. After I finished the training, they provided mock interviews for me to practice. They were very flexible, and I felt this helped me get a better project.

Astir helped market my profile, and I was able to find a good, long term client project. The recruiters were always in touch with me, and set me up with multiple interviews. I am happy working for Astir.



★★★★★ - Definitely recommend joining Astir - - - 12/27/2013 - flag as inappropriate - comment
I have worked for Astir for the past 3 years and they have been good to me. They have found me good projects, and everyone I have worked with there has been helpful.

After having heard horror stories from my friends and their employers I researched many companies and found Astir to have a good reputation. They have been good to me, and I have not had any issues.

I would definitely recommend working here.
