Identify the assets, condition, valuation date and exclusions relevant to the actual acquisition.
Resolve scope differences
A report may value equipment not included in the sale. Keep the agreement and asset evidence consistent rather than counting property the applicant will not acquire.
Bring the formation documents, the current capitalisation table, subscription or share purchase agreements, share certificates or membership records, the operating or shareholders' agreement, and resolutions appointing officers. The dealer agreements and manufacturer approval, three years of financial statements and tax returns, the lease or deed, payroll records, the fixed-asset and inventory list, and the executed purchase and escrow agreements. For employment savings, include records that show earnings and accumulation; for a sale, connect ownership, sale agreement, proceeds, and deposit; for a gift, identify the donor’s lawful source and the transfer terms; for a loan, explain collateral and repayment responsibility. A credible business plan with staffing and financial projections, a valuation supporting the price paid, corporate formation in the American state, a shareholders agreement drafted to establish operational control, and an accountant tracing the source of funds all cost money before anything is submitted. Where a purchase is conditional on the visa, an escrow is normal, and its terms are then part of the evidence: money returnable at the buyer's option is not committed, whereas an escrow releasable on approval with the deposit otherwise irrevocable is a different instrument.
