H-1B wage level

the lottery is wage-weighted — each level is one more entry

Level II · 2×
Level I$111,6131 entry

Level III$174,5953 entries
Level IV$206,0864 entries

$14,595 more — $174,595 — moves this role to Level III and 3 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 $174,595 would place this position at wage Level III. That figure is within the posted range, and I'd like to target it. This role classifies under "Software Developers" for prevailing-wage purposes.
