Only a genuine proposed role should be described. A qualifying L spouse may work incident to valid status with appropriate evidence, but the business plan does not grant that status.
Keep the staffing and family assessments separate
Identify the spouse’s real intended duties and immigration records. L dependents are a qualifying spouse or unmarried child under 21; children do not obtain the spousal work benefit. A relative’s availability cannot be treated as proof that the principal’s operational tasks are already covered.
The legal position is settled, but the practical one involves a document a US employer will want in its hiring file, so the spouse should be prepared to explain the basis of employment authorization and to produce the admission record showing L-2 status. Priya's spouse should confirm that any Form I-94 issued reflects the L-2S notation used for employment-authorized spouses, since that notation, not simply the L-2 classification generally, is the evidence an employer will look for under current USCIS guidance. A spouse intending to take salaried work needs evidence an employer will actually accept, so the practical question is which record satisfies that employer's verification process rather than whether permission exists in principle.
