Request a clear definition of each category, relevant dates and supporting evidence appropriate to the job analysis. Explain overlaps so the same position is not counted twice.
Connect the total to what actually happened
An accepted offer, a postponed start and a payroll entry describe different events. Preserve those distinctions rather than presenting the largest recruitment total as a verified EB-5 job count.
Keep appropriate financial or employee records supporting the baseline and resulting expansion, and connect the change to the investment. Build a traceable account connecting relevant income records, deposits and later transfers. Do not invent a supporting letter or assert that the intended enterprise received funds before the evidence establishes the path. Reconcile timesheets, payroll registers, tax records, job descriptions, and the organization chart by position. If the current owner bought the land from a parent, the deed and the evidence of payment or the declared value at that time matter; if it passed by inheritance, the will, the declaration of transmission and any estate documents show that step. If the lender or an intermediary is not a regulated bank, or the ownership and transfers are unusual, additional source evidence may be needed.
