Salary decreases from 92k to 70k?

Does my employer need to file an amended LCA and H1B when salary decreases from 92k to 70k?

Hello reader,

I hope you are in good health.

My current employer is decreasing my salary by $20000. The employer states that an LCA has been filed with the Labor Department.

A few details on my approved H1B with last LCA are as below:
Job Title - Software Engineer
SOC Occupation Title - Software Developers, Applications
SOC Code - 15-1132
Wage Level - 2

My I140 has been approved in EB2 category.

Would the SOC Code of the new LCA be changed? And if so are there any damages on H1B renewal next year or on my I140 (Green Card)if the SOC Code changes? Does my employer need to file an amended LCA and H1B when salary decreases from 92k to 70k?

They are really obligated to do an update if they're cutting your pay by $20k. I don't know when it would become critical but this is a significant change of employment terms (labor condition).

Changing code is no issue as such. But if it is done with a decrease in pay, I don't know how the consular official will react. I don't know if income levels from past applications are highlighted for them in their system.
