Pricing FAQ
Common questions about cost
Is the gap analysis really free?
Yes — no card, no auto-enrollment. It exists so you can make an informed decision before spending anything.
What if I only need documentation help, not full mentorship?
Tell us at intake — we scope engagements to what your record actually needs rather than a one-size package.
Do you offer payment plans?
Yes, staged payments are available for the Build & File package. Ask during your gap analysis call.
Does this include attorney fees?
No. We prepare and structure your case; a licensed immigration attorney handles legal review and filing, billed separately.
