Office of the Attorney General
Workforce & H-1B Analysis

The OAG employs 4,050 people serving Texans across child support enforcement, victim services, Medicaid fraud, and law enforcement. Unlike TxDOT's mass H-1B contracting, the OAG shows a smaller but pointed pattern — guest workers placed directly inside the Child Support Division that serves millions of Texas families.

The Texas Office of the Attorney General runs the largest child support program in the country — collecting billions of dollars annually for Texas children and families who depend on it. That program runs on software. And the software, it turns out, is being developed and architected by H-1B workers placed through outside staffing firms.

Only 4 H-1B placements appear for the OAG in FY2026 — far fewer than TxDOT — but the location matters. Both placements target the Child Support Division, one as a Software Developer and one as a Cloud Architect. These are skilled IT roles tied to a system that 4,050 OAG employees depend on daily, and that Texas families rely on for child support payments. A duplicate petition flag on one of them raises additional questions about how these contracts are being managed.

H-1B Vendor Placements at OAG — FY2026 Q1 & Q2
🎯
Both H-1B placements target the Child Support Division
The OAG's H-1B footprint is small compared to TxDOT, but it is concentrated in one place: the Division of Child Support Services (DCSS), which runs the IT systems behind the largest child support program in the United States. A Software Developer and a Cloud Architect — both placed through outside staffing firms — are working on systems that 4,050 OAG employees and millions of Texas families depend on. Data source: DOL LCA Disclosure Data FY2026 Q1 & Q2.
⚠️
Duplicate case number detected — 3CORE filed the same petition in Q1 and Q2
Case number I-200-25315-396923 appears in both Q1 and Q2 disclosure data for 3CORE Systems. Your H-1B Search tool flagged this as a duplicate. This may indicate the LCA was carried over between quarters, but it warrants closer inspection — particularly for a placement in a division handling sensitive financial data for Texas families.

OAG vs. TxDOT: A tale of two agencies
TxDOT has 132 H-1B workers placed by 13 vendors — 100 from CGI Technologies alone. The OAG has just 4 H-1B workers from 2 vendors. The difference in scale is real, but the OAG case carries a different kind of weight: the Child Support Division processes billions in payments for Texas children. When the people building that infrastructure are brought in through visa programs instead of hired as Texans, it is worth asking why — and who decided that was acceptable.

About This Data
Employee payroll data is sourced from the Texas State Auditor's Office. Ethnicity classifications are as recorded in state HR systems. No employee shown here has been identified as an H-1B visa holder — ethnicity data does not indicate immigration or visa status. H-1B data sourced from DOL LCA Disclosure Data FY2026 Q1 (LCA_Disclosure_Data_FY2026_Q1) and Q2 (LCA_Disclosure_Data_FY2026_Q2), filtered to records listing the Office of the Attorney General, Child Support Division, or DCSS as the secondary entity or worksite employer.
