L1, L2 Visa

Hi All,

My company has submitted a petition to the USCIS for L1A individual under premium processing route. While they haven't yet discussed with me on my proposed salary, they mentioned to me that they have indicated a 'hypothetical' salary in the petition, but didn't disclose the amount (hence i am assuming they have mentioned a higher salary than what they intend to actually pay, to make the case stronger). They also told me that the actual salary need not necessarily be the same as what is mentioned in the petition.

I have the following concerns, it would be very helpful if you could answer based on your experiences:

1. Has anyone of you had this case where your company actually paid you lower than what was indicated in the petition to USCIS?
2. Does the USCIS track the salary declared in petition vs what is actually paid?
3. Does USCIS for pay slips as proofs while applying for L1A renewal or EB1C? (supposing I apply an EB1C or L1 renewal after 3 years)
4. What are the risks if USCIS finds out about this discrepancy is salary?

Thanks!
Ralf
