Decision Summary
The director denied the petition due to a discrepancy between the proffered salary and the actual wages paid, alleging misrepresentation. The AAO found that while this was a material issue, it was not a proper basis for denial by USCIS. The correct procedure is to remand the case and instruct the service center to file a complaint with the Department of Labor (DOL) to investigate the potential Labor Condition Application (LCA) violation.
