Describe the actual stage and have the evidence and investment timing reviewed. Do not present a pending or unresolved transfer as an acknowledged completed contribution.
Resolve the relevant discrepancy before relying on the total
Preserve communications and records of the inquiry. A planned correction does not guarantee a filing result or visa date, and later immigration deadlines should be tracked from the correct status milestones rather than the wire date. Decide what the tracing has to produce before the filing is worth preparing, and say so explicitly: a named cause, a written acknowledgment of the amount credited, and a corrected figure if one is needed.
With those three the file describes a settled position; without them it describes a hope. While the inquiry runs, carry on preparing everything that does not depend on its outcome — the source-of-funds narrative, identity and relationship documents, and the project’s own materials — so that the only item on the critical path is the one genuinely unresolved. Preserve every message exchanged with the bank and the administrator, including those that turn out to be wrong, since the sequence of what was asked and answered often explains a discrepancy better than the final figure does.
Note in the file the date the inquiry was opened and the answer expected from each party, so a delay by one of them shows up as a delay rather than as an unexplained pause in the case.
