Expect a separate government filing or border-related cost for the second employer's authorization, plus legal assistance preparing that employer's own evidence file. Confirm current official fees directly, since the second employer's process is assessed independently and may carry its own charges regardless of the first employer's existing arrangement.
Budget for two separate evidence files
Ask whether legal assistance pricing accounts for reviewing both roles together for compatibility, not just preparing the second employer's paperwork in isolation. If either employer's schedule or duties need adjusting to remain compatible, that may involve additional coordination time. Confirm whether the second employer will cover any part of the preparation cost, since practices vary and should be settled before the process starts.
Board application fees, examination fees, credential verification through the issuing university, and travel to sittings can add up well beyond the government immigration charges, and the timeline they impose has its own cost in delayed income. A petition filed by the employer involves the USCIS Form I-129 fee, the asylum program fee where it applies, and premium processing if the employer wants a fast answer; the fee schedule changes periodically, so the G-1055 is the only figure worth quoting. Foreign-language USCIS documents require full certified English translations; verify government and professional fees separately from document-provider charges.
