Determine the actual amount contributed under the investment arrangement, separately from funds retained or used for costs. A deposited balance is not automatically the enterprise’s qualifying capital.
Follow the money through the actual contribution
Reconcile the deposit, subsequent transfers and investment acknowledgment. Keep preparation charges and household expenses distinct rather than adding them to the qualifying contribution because they came from the same cash balance.
Separate the qualifying contribution, project charges, government fees and professional scope. Review the notice’s handling of the payment and keep any new charge distinct from the qualifying contribution. If the plan needs more qualifying employment, compare the real staffing budget and the legally relevant job evidence before agreeing to an extra contribution. Reconcile the contribution by economic value, not by the number of wires. The investor must document lawful source and path, maintain capital at risk, participate in management or policy formation and support ten full-time qualifying jobs. Confirm each government amount against the current USCIS fee schedule. Source-of-funds work for a farm sold over several years is accounting labour measured in weeks. Legal and advisory fees for the source-of-funds narrative and the petition are private.
