You may download, personalize and otherwise modify this free sample
salary requirement letter or just keep it handy as an example to
write your own. It's an RTF file format, which is compatible with
most word processors (such as Microsoft® Word) and safe to
download.
But first, please read the Important notice
below, which includes the download link.
Because of differences in the way that Web browsers and word processors
display pages, the sample salary requirement letter format displayed
below differs slightly from the download version created in a word
processor.
If you copy and paste this sample salary requirement letter format
from your screen instead of downloading it, the format might not
stay intact.
This sample salary requirement letter format is in full-block,
business-letter style. But when emailing salary requirement letters,
they don't necessarily need to be quite as formally formatted.
For example, you could delete the letterhead, date and recipient's
address if you want, because your email application will automatically
include informal equivalents. It's a good idea to keep at least
the salutation (Dear...) and complimentary close (Sincerely...),
but you can change them to your preference.

Dear [Recipient's name]:
This is in reply to your request for a salary requirement
letter.
In lieu of providing my salary requirement at this time,
may I first schedule an interview to learn more about the
job? I'd be happy to discuss my salary requirement toward
the end of the interview. It is negotiable, depending on
job duties and benefits.
Thanks for contacting me. I hope to hear from you soon regarding
an interview. The best way to reach me is through my mobile
phone, by dialing [area code, number].
Sincerely,
