Hi everybody,

I was notified by my attorney yesterday that they received a prewailing wage query on my application (RIR - PD 05/03/2002). They think that the prevailing wage for my job should be $94,764.80 (I do not know that they pay this much for a Systems Analyst with 3 or 4 years experience these days). When I checked the Online Wage Library provided for Systems Analysts in the area I am working (http://edc.dws.state.ut.us/owl.asp), the Level 2 wage is $70,000. I am not sure why there is almost $25,000 difference between the two wages.

Yesterday, I talked to our HR and they decided that $95k is very high and want to rebutt it with submitting some survey. Also, they decided to increase the current prevailing wage to be just above the the figure that will come out of our survey.

So, if any one of you has any suggestions or comments, I would really appreciate it.

And also, please let me know what is the normal timeframe for approval where there is a query and what are the odds that the application will be rejected?

Any comments (or info) on the prevailing wage queries are appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
RRavipati
