Important Clarification
Forming or acquiring a U.S. company, or preparing a business plan, does not by itself provide immigration status or establish eligibility for an immigration benefit. Immigration-ready business plans are provided as commercial and business-planning documents. Immigration legal advice, eligibility analysis, petition strategy, and representation must be provided by the client’s separately retained immigration counsel. We do not guarantee approval or any particular immigration outcome.
We do not provide immigration legal representation, visa advice, tax preparation, accounting, bookkeeping, payroll, or financial advisory services through this website.
