maddyfreaks Posted January 20, 2013 Report Posted January 20, 2013 Hi Experts, Currently I am on H1B working for a Indian Company , working on percentage basis... the issue / concern i have is my paystubs has different pays every month ... not sure how to convince the immigration officer when I go for stamping. How can i make this clear ... am palnning to make the stamping in april/may 2013 Also my employer does not pay my insurance ... so I dont see any insurance details / cut in any of my paystubs .... [ I ma getting this insurance outside ]. Will this be a problem when going for stamping. Please advice.
pontevecchio Posted January 20, 2013 Report Posted January 20, 2013 As long as each stub is at least equal to the prorated LCA wages you should have no problem. Beyond the LCA any other agreement is between you two. Why would the insurance matter?
gkpv Posted January 20, 2013 Report Posted January 20, 2013 Based on what i heard from my attorney , if your monthly pay meets or exceeds the amount specified in your LCA, you should be good. Make sure you are not underpaid than LCA.
cobra1232 Posted January 20, 2013 Report Posted January 20, 2013 If the Salary is above LCA then there is nothing to worry about. Also make sure it's for minimum 40 hrs/week. I would bring the health insurance documents (payment receipt too) just to be on safe side. Note: This is not a legal advice, just opinion based on personal experience.
maddyfreaks Posted January 21, 2013 Author Report Posted January 21, 2013 Thanks Experts for your advice. What I heard is that officers in most of the Places are concerned about the Insurance .. i.e few folks who got H1 stamp in Canada and India said that they are checking weather we have Insurance column in pays tubs [ i assume they are checking weather employer is paying insurance or not ]. In my case as said i am getting my insurance outside .. not sure to what extent this will be benefit ... or any issue.
maddyfreaks Posted January 22, 2013 Author Report Posted January 22, 2013 some one please help me on this question
pontevecchio Posted January 22, 2013 Report Posted January 22, 2013 tHEY ARE POSSIBLY CHECKING COMPLIANCE WITH VARIOUS ASPECTS OF THE NEW hEALTH CARE SITUATION. aNY WAY TO SHOW INSURANCE IS FINE.
maddyfreaks Posted January 22, 2013 Author Report Posted January 22, 2013 But my employer is not paying insurance, I am paying it on my own so it will not reflect in my Pay Stubs... Will this be a show stopper @ stamping
Rakee Posted February 5, 2013 Report Posted February 5, 2013 Hello Everyone, I am also in the similar situation my annual salary plus bonus amount will be more than the amount mentioned on the LCA. But my monthly salary is less than the prorated LCA wages. My bonus will be paid once in a year. Hence total wages in the W2 will be more than LCA amount. Please let me know if I am on safe side or is it a mandatory to have every month salary more than or equal to prorated LCA wages.
JoeF Posted February 5, 2013 Report Posted February 5, 2013 Each paycheck has to be at least the pro-rated wage.
