The applicable investment amount depends on the governing rules and qualifying project basis, not merely a changed projected job total.
Review the actual category and filing
Separate modeling or project charges from qualifying capital. Confirm the applicable amount and statutory adjustment rather than inferring a lower threshold from a favorable forecast.
Government filing fees for the investor petition, the immigrant visa or adjustment process, and later the petition to remove conditions, all published officially; plus regional centre administrative fees where applicable, legal fees, and professional work on source-of-funds documentation. Professional costs are substantial because the file is substantial: counsel to review the project documents, counsel for the immigration filings, and often an accountant or specialist to prepare the source and path of funds narrative with its exhibits. Get written quotes for accounting and legal review rather than working from estimates, and do not treat profits held inside a company as personal liquidity available for a tax bill, however healthy the business looks on paper. A complete budget should include advice from independent professionals appropriate to the investor’s needs, but no adviser can convert a commercial expense into qualifying capital by using a different label.
