No. The actual primary duties and authority remain essential.

A budget can support a plan without proving delegation has occurred. Explain real operational arrangements rather than treating spending as the classification test.
An unsigned estimate or rounded budget line shows an intention to spend, not that bookkeeping, fulfillment, marketing, or customer support will be available. A new-office filing shifts spending forward instead of removing it, because the premises and the staffing plan must exist before the petition rather than after. Budget application preparation and current government fees separately; none of these expenditures substitutes for a qualifying managerial or executive job. Government charges should be checked against the current USCIS Form G-1055 schedule for the actual filing, rather than folded into an impressive travel total. The start-up costs are evidence of the subsidiary's capacity to support a managerial role; the filing costs are government and professional fees that prove nothing about the business. For a new office, the operating budget must support the proposed role within one year of approval independently of the price of an assessment.
