H-1B wage level

Level I · 1×
Level I$152,7971 entry
Level II$187,0752 entries

Level IV$255,6534 entries

$27,075 more — $187,075 — moves this role to Level II and 2 lottery entries. That figure is inside the range the employer already advertised.

Based on the DOL prevailing wage for this occupation and worksite, a base salary of $187,075 would place this position at wage Level II. That figure is within the posted range, and I'd like to target it. This role classifies under "Software Developers" for prevailing-wage purposes.
