Salary discrepancy between I-485 and LC

[HeidiL]

Hi,

When my company petitioned for my Labor Certificate, there was a minimum salary requirement two years ago but it was just a projected number so my employer went with it.

Now my labor certificate and I-140 have been approved. I realize that my current salary is still 17% less than the required salary set by Labor Dept during the LC application. In order to file I-485, I need my employer to present a statement in which my salary is stated. Do you think I can go ahead to apply for I-845 or I should work for another two years to reach that salary?

By the way, I've been wondering if I could include my benefits in my salary to boot the annual pay. Any advice?

Thank you for your time.

No problems

The letter your employer will have to give is once again for a job/position after you get GC approval. So there is no harm in getting 17% less now.

Thank you very much, Jaxen.
Now I feel a lot relieved.
