Update the actual business costs, qualifying-capital analysis and separate professional and official charges.
Reconcile the money rather than the summary
An amendment can move amounts between price, financing and fees. Explain each payment’s actual purpose instead of assuming the original total answers the current requirements.
Once the ownership works, the remaining findings are the usual ones: an investment substantial in proportion to the total cost of acquiring the business, funds irrevocably committed and at risk, a real and operating enterprise, and an enterprise that is more than marginal. The comparison is between the amount invested and the cost of the enterprise in question, so an investment representing a large fraction of what the business actually costs is more persuasive than a larger absolute sum representing a small fraction of an expensive one. Budgets should include ordinary commercial realities such as insurance, payroll, rent, inventory, technology, and professional services, but they should not invent expenses merely to reach a larger total. Government charges depend on the route taken: a visa application at a consular post or a change of status filing, with fees published by the Department of State and USCIS respectively rather than quoted from memory.
