Is their any risk on employer doing recruitment phase for PERM before the PWD has been approved?

I would assume that if for some reason they complete recruitment and PWD comes back being higher than the wage included on recruitment that they would just restart the recruitment? Is their any other risk for me other than employer potentially having to do recruitment twice?

I was initially signaled by my lawyers that if push comes to shove recruitment can be started in parallel. When I went to them last month to explore this option, they were reluctant and cited incurring additional costs. I even challenged them on the probability of wage coming in higher etc. but they were firm in their viewpoint. Pwd is taking 5-6 months - such a ling disheartening process. I think i will be happy to move back home in 18 months if this doesnt move fast enough.

Yeah I had a chat with our internal immigration team and they said that it could cost additional so would need to get additional approvals but they are hoping to try and do it in parallel if it doesn’t jeopardize my case due to how much time I have left on my current visa. But waiting to hear back from the external legal council.
