LCA Wage Level 1 RFE- First time H1 PETITION


que sera sera

Recommended Posts

Got an RFE on Labor Condition Application. It says that my work doesn't seem to be an entry level position despite the wage classification selected in the LCA.   Asking for 

Letter explaining how this wage level is related to the specialty occupation selected 

Documentation to support that the level 1 wage designated in the LCA corresponds to that position 

In my LCA Job title: Programmer Analyst

SOC Code: 15-1121

SOC Occupation Title: Computer systems Analyst.

     My Employer is saying that as of now they don't know how to respond to this query. Many of friends are saying that it's tough to get the approval if one get's this RFE. Any views on this. Do you know any one who got this kind of RFE and got approval.

Thanks for the response. Are there any cases where you have seen an approval after getting this RFE. I'm really worried as many were saying getting approval after received this kind of RFE is tough.

Yes, I heard some cases in the past who got approvals.  It totally depends on the RFE response documentation and how your employer's attorney present your case.

Can we revise the LCA, by making it to a Level 2 Wage instead of Level 1, or will it lead to a denial.

No, that is not possible, because it indicates that the original H1 filing was bogus.

Find a better employer next year, INE who doesn't try to save money by violating the H1 rules.

I am sailing in the same boat as well. I received this RFE a week ago .

I am apparent regarding the approvals as well. I have been getting very mixed opinions .

Request a response and suggestions over the similar cases as to how to handle the RFE to get an approval .

Appreciate the responses !!

The employer has to handle that. You need to stay out of it.

Does the employer not have a lawyer for H1 filings???

Hi All,

Even I had the same RFE. My LCA was filed under SOC Code 15-1132 with job title as Programmer Analyst. Any idea on how to handle this. I heard that the denial ratio is high for this new type RFE. Did any one got lucky to reply the RFE and get an approval ?
