No. Confirm the current terms directly from the official FAQ, since informally repeated figures may be outdated or incomplete, and eligibility, admissibility, and visa availability remain conditions regardless of the figure quoted.
Replace a secondhand figure with the current official source
Check the official instructions directly before relying on any amount that was not confirmed from that source, and treat a community member's account as a starting point for further verification rather than a final answer.
A useful first meeting compares the household's facts with what the program actually requires: eligibility for lawful permanent residence, admissibility, and an available visa, with a determination under EB-1 or EB-2. The official framework treats the gift and fee as part of a process that still applies the existing employment-based immigrant criteria and admissibility rules. The payments are a condition of this route; the underlying immigrant category is a separate eligibility question; and admissibility is a third question again, decided on its own facts. A favourable programme description cannot remove an admissibility issue or create derivative eligibility for a relative outside the statutory category.
