Initially filed on March 15, 2016, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has between 30-60 days to make their final decision. Therefore, the new rule can be revealed as early as mid-May. ## Here is what we know: \* Originally the exempt salary threshold was looking to be set at $50,440 but now it is looking to be more like $47,000 (up from $23,660) Keep watching our blogs and we’ll keep you updated as we learn more! ### [Stephanie Rosenberger](https://www.kuzneski.com/blog/author/stephanie-rosenberger) Stephanie has been a Client Advisor at KIG for more than 7 years, specializing in employee benefits and HR solutions.
