Do not use private screening as a substitute for successful official vetting and the actual gift instructions.
Wait for the instruction from the correct process
The official FAQ describes the gift after vetting. A provider’s completion date does not determine visa availability, government processing or permission to bypass a required step.
Each stage is a point at which the case can stop, and the only money at stake before vetting is the processing fee. Re-verify live instructions before transmitting money or relying on a procedural date. A private assessment, however confident, reflects a single reviewer's opinion rather than the outcome of the actual vetting process, and it carries no procedural weight with the agency running that process. Funds sent outside the specific channel and format named in the official instruction may not be properly credited to the case, and recovering a misdirected payment can be far harder than waiting for the correct instruction. Ask the private reviewer to identify exactly which parts of the case were assessed and which were not, since a favorable opinion on a single element does not cover admissibility or the classification determination as a whole. Keep the private assessment separate from the official record, and rely on it only to prioritize preparation, never to justify moving money before the government's own instruction arrives. Treat a favorable private read as a reason to keep preparing quickly, not as permission to skip the step the actual process still requires.
