-The DOL’s ‘safe harbor’ provisions” is only needed if your employer have no enough money to pay you at the prevail wage, and thus want to find a new job code with lower prevail wage. Inexperienced lawyers always find excuses. I have seen many H-1b cases using unofficial PWD for LCA and have never had a problem. You may hire a new lawyer to help you.
