I have received RFE for employment. I am with same employer since the GC process has started (PD May 2002, RD, Jan 2003). The problem is my salary is appx 10,000 more then what I was getting that time. Also it is 5,000 more then what currently is appropriate for my job.

My lawyer says it could be a problem.I don't understand what to do. Can somebody guide if they had similar experience ?
 
potentially the extra renumeration indicates job duty changes contrary to the original labor cert and I-140. They could ask you to do it over again.
 
It depends on the Labor Cert

If you are above the $ amount mentioned in Labor cert and you are in the similar job position, there won't be any problem.

hay gr2003,
I am not in your boad but in my understanding you should be just fine. I guess your lawyer should be able to justify it based on 3 years duration and your excellent performance thereby increase in your salary.

I wouldn't worry about it but would surely get few more legal advises from some good layweres.
 
I do not think 10 K more should be an issue. I know my friends who got more than 20K difference and got it thru without any issue.

As long as job is same / similar, you should be fine. The salary on LC is minimum to be paid to prove ability to pay. More than that should be ok. A lot more difference could alarm for different job.

Is this I-140 RFE?

I was in similar situation . you should be able to justify the raise in salary.
Good Luck !

You said you were in similar situation...did you get an RFE for the increased pay? how did you handle that? please share the info.
 
As far as I know, one should need to worry only if the salary is less than the one that is specified on LC. I am surprised at your lawyer's reply. Thanks!
