Not by itself. Explain the actual staffing, duties and resources of the current proposal. Costs and responsibilities may differ after the handover.
Connect the budget to genuine operations
Separate business support from government and professional preparation expenses. A historical salary line cannot prove a primarily managerial or executive role for the incoming employee.
Confirm current official charges without copying amounts from another employer, and define whether professional fees cover entity analysis, drafting, translations, later inquiries, extensions, or family filings. Confirm current petition amounts on the USCIS fee schedule, then budget separately for the corporate evidence the petition demands, which for a small or newly acquired U.S. entity is often the largest and least anticipated expense. The first budget should assign each expense to a decision: corporate-document review tests the relationship, accounting evidence tests active business, and relocation spending follows an approved plan.
Ask an accountant or corporate records specialist to estimate the work needed to produce clear ownership and payroll documentation if it does not already exist in an organized form, and treat that as a distinct cost from the immigration filing itself.
