No. The corporate figures of US$15,000 and US$2 million apply per employee. Each joining spouse and unmarried child under 21 must be considered in the initial application and adds US$15,000 and US$1 million, in corporate cases as much as individual ones. Settle who pays those amounts before an offer is discussed.
Write the family position into the offer
A candidate with a spouse and two children faces a very different total from a single candidate, and silence on the point is read as a promise. State plainly which costs the company covers, which the employee bears, and what happens if the family list changes before filing. Confirm the family members must be included in the initial application, so a late addition is not treated internally as a simple amendment.
