Current terms apply an additional US$15,000 and US$1 million to each eligible joining spouse or unmarried child under 21, with intended eligible family identified initially. Current official terms add a US$15,000 processing fee and US$1,000,000 gift for each eligible joining spouse or unmarried child under 21, including corporate cases; confirm individual eligibility and the operative instructions.
Build the budget person by person
A shared household does not remove individual eligibility or the stated family amounts.
Because the described route runs through existing employment-based immigrant categories, those categories' own requirements govern eligibility, and a payment does not create eligibility a person does not otherwise have. A child nearing 21, a planned marriage, a nonmarital partner, an adult child, or a relative with a separate immigration history can materially affect household choices. Confirm the relationship evidence, each child’s age and marital status, any possible CSPA analysis, admissibility, and visa availability rather than treating a payment amount as the whole case.
