What are the initial steps before my Companys H-1B Petition can be filed on my behalf?
• Answer: Once we receive the Company’s detailed information regarding the position, we secure a prevailing wage determination. The prevailing wage provides the Department of Labor (DOL) with a salary determination as to what US workers earn when workers performing similar duties, with similar training, experience and under similar employer described job responsibilities in the same geographic area. Once the prevailing wage is determined, the case moves to the second procedural step, the filing of a Labor Condition Application (LCA) with the DOL. If the DOL concurs with the prevailing wage, and determines that the employer is paying at least 95% of the prevailing wage, the LCA is issued.
