Filing articles creates the entity. It does not finish the company. The formation file should connect the Secretary of State filing, ownership records, governance, tax setup, banking authority, contracts, and recurring compliance.
A new-hire file should connect work authorization, pay notice, payroll, state reporting, policies, access, training, benefits, privacy, and role-specific licensing. Use the first 20 days to build a record that shows what the employer told the employee, what it verified, and what access it granted.

A printable, bilingual worksheet for inventorying EB-1A evidence against the ten criteria, building context for the final merits step, showing sustained acclaim and continuing work, and mapping the same record to EB-2 and a national interest waiver.
A printable, bilingual worksheet for choosing recommendation-letter writers in EB-1A and national interest waiver cases: how USCIS weighs letters, independent and dependent writers, scoring, coverage, special situations, and drafting without templates.
