I came to U.S. in 2014 on H1-B category visa as computer engineer. After 3 months the sponsor company has begun for my green card. The salary in LCA was 60,000 $ but the company paid me $30,000. I talked with employer and they said they will increase my salary as soon as possible. But it didn't happen until
07/2015 after 19 months. Right now my I-140 and I-485 filed and I received the reception notices of them. I will go to bio metrics appointment this month. Unfortunately, at the end of this month my visa will be expired. So these are my questions:
Can I extend my visa with the situations I had with my salary during last year
How much risk do I have If I want to extend my visa without problem
What solutions do I have if this problem comes up
Does it affect on my green card process
You may extend your visa. It is not usually a problem.
If the problem comes your pay stubs otherwise document your employment. You should contact your immigration attorney.
The ability to pay your wage is a requirement of the I-140 and I-485. It is an issue. You may hope it doesn't become an issue in your case.
You should contact an immigration attorney to advise you further.

Well.. One would need to review the entire record of yours to opine. As a general rule, failure to comply with the salary requirements could spell serious problems for the immigration path.
