How can i check if my salary is in the accepted range in Canada.I tried Payscale but i could not find any information about my position.

I don't want to apply as a CEC and get rejected because i was underpaid.

Thank you

CEC does not have any "salary" criteria. If all your other documentation is good, it will not be an issue.

If you are applying for a work permit, an LMO may be negative if the salary is not in line with the average for your occupation and region.

If there is some doubt about your experience in a skilled occupation, a salary that is much lower than then norm for that occupation will not help. But by itself, a certain salary level is NOT a requirement.

If it is on the document checklist, you have to provide it. Yes.

so the officer will compare it with the acceptable salary rate.
There would be no official reason for the IO to do this. However, if you're claiming to be an accounting supervisor but being paid like an accounting clerk, it may be a red flag that you aren't telling the truth.

Do you know any website provide this information?

What information? Wage information? The easiest way to get some idea is to go to www.jobbank.gc.ca and search the NOC code...

Check: Working in Canada Tool. You can google it.
This website gives all the information regarding salary range in the region, NOC category and opportunities, etc.

Hope it helps!
