Closing RFE objections on "High remuneration"

• no comparison to the field

  USCIS says the income has not been shown to be high compared with other professionals in the same field.

• both elements are not proven

  The officer points out that evidence is needed both of the income itself and of its being significantly high relative to the market.

• average salaries are not enough

  USCIS does not accept general average or local salary surveys as sufficient evidence of high compensation.

• bank statements do not show high remuneration

  Bank statements alone do not establish that the deposits were payment for services or that the payment was high for the field.

• company income instead of personal pay

  Service agreements with a company or consulting firm do not prove the beneficiary's personal salary or compensation.

• no certified translation

  The officer noted that the filing did not include proper certified translations of the submitted documents.

• future income does not prove commanded

  Evidence of future or expected income does not show that the petitioner has already received high compensation.
