Do not count the same funds repeatedly. Identify the actual total commitments for the intended eligible joining family and the available funding for each.
Budget the household from real amounts
The FAQ recommends initial inclusion of the eligible spouse and unmarried children under 21 who will join. Each adds US$15,000 and US$1 million. An estate’s headline value does not by itself establish that the applicant can fund all those separate amounts.
Families read the individual figure, picture themselves included in it, and are then presented with a total several times larger. Review the actual travel instructions for the household and do not let a private preference silently reverse the required sequence. Read the actual agreement and clarify which eligible applicants and expenses it covers. A relocation allowance does not itself waive or prove payment of those amounts. Confirm the current fee and gift amounts for each family member. Family members are included by choice, and each included spouse or eligible child carries an additional gift and processing fee under the official terms. Family additions and a corporate-principal structure can alter the total under instructions. Since directions may change, verify official portal requirements again before sending family funds.
