What should be the salary on DS forms..?

[keshavardhan]

Hi All,

    I am on EVC Model. Currently the salary i get every month is more than LCA amount and that's a good sign however i was looking at the DS forms and there is a question saying how much is your salary..? My paycheck every month varies now as i am little busy in office and client pays me extra hours In this case what should be my salary on DS forms..? should i mention that is on my LCA or should i mention what would be the average salary that would be end up on my W2 this year..?

      Your help would be greatly appreciated.

LCA salary/12. That's your monthly salary.

monthly salary would be what we get paid....not LCA/12...we could get paid more than LCA as well..

If that's constant amount then it's okay, usually people get paid by no.of hour wokred that means it varies month by month.

Thanks everyone for your response. So what should be the final answer here as my paycheck varies every month as i said earlier i work for extra hours every month. So the LCA/12 should be answer..?

Salary for the 40 hours work should be the answer, I believe.
