No. A professional opinion cannot replace accurate facts about the employee and assignment.
Define the evidence question
Clarify why an assessment is relevant before paying. Separate optional services from government fees and reject outcome guarantees based on a purchased report.
Government charges per the USCIS fee schedule, professional fees for the eligibility review and petition, staff time to assemble procedure and training records, and the L-2 applications for any family. Prepare a ledger separating government filing charges, document retrieval, translation, professional work, premises, payroll, and operating funds. Confirm current government charges through the official fee schedule, then identify translation, corporate-record, travel-history, knowledge-documentation, and professional-review costs. Preparing understandable descriptions or obtaining records may require time and professional work, but the company should not assume it must purchase a large technical report. A cost review separates government charges, professional assistance, and commercial spending, then asks which payment proves an immigration element and which does not. Requests for further evidence are common in this category because the standard invites scrutiny, so budget for a second round of professional and internal work. Two costs follow from having two possible categories: legal time to assess the assignment against both, and preparation work to reconstruct technical evidence a purely managerial file would never have needed. Budget government filing charges, professional work, travel, and salary independently, checking current official fees rather than implying higher pay purchases a favourable decision.
