Verify the current official charge and payment instructions for the actual step before relying on the screenshot. The source and applicability matter, not only the amount displayed. Current published amounts are US$15,000 nonrefundable processing per person, then a US$1 million individual principal or US$2 million corporate principal gift after successful vetting. Each eligible joining family member adds US$15,000 and US$1 million, including corporately.
Check the payment stage and recipient
Distinguish processing fees, the government gift after successful vetting, professional services and family charges. Use verified official instructions rather than a forwarded template. Keep a dated record of the applicable terms.
A private summary cannot change official refundability or establish that a payment completes the process. Corporate terms describe 1% annual maintenance and a 5% transfer fee including a new DHS background check. Reuse of a prior corporate principal gift under the official process is not automatic approval of a replacement employee.
Additional State Department and medical costs may apply; verify current instructions for the actual proposal.
