Explain actual roles and review each person’s permission before relying on the staffing plan.
Keep operational and status assumptions visible
A shared household budget does not establish individual authorization or a qualifying managerial role. Identify who will genuinely perform each task.
The business should budget current filing charges, evidence preparation, legal or professional services if retained, and the separate expense of actually operating the U.S. entity. Because amounts change, the fee schedule is the only source worth relying on, and any figure quoted second-hand should be checked against it before a budget is approved. Identify the actual petition type, government charges, premium-processing choice if available, professional work, translations and records the organization must obtain. For a new office, the operating budget has evidentiary value because it helps show how the organization expects to support a managerial or executive role at the end of the initial year. Budget separately for legitimate lease, corporate, payroll, and business-plan work, then check current government charges without stating a fixed filing figure. A new-office business budget, such as lease and hiring costs, is a distinct category of expenditure that should not be confused with immigration application fees.
