No. A receipt for unrelated giving does not establish compliance with the programme’s actual instructions.
Identify the payment’s real purpose
Review the case and recipient rather than relabelling a prior contribution. Do not rely on a promised credit without an applicable official basis.
The governing executive order instructs the agencies to treat the gift as evidence of the specified EB-1 or EB-2 eligibility basis, so it is wrong to say that payment does no work in the category analysis. Because the process uses existing employment-based immigrant classifications, whatever that classification demands of any other applicant it also demands here, and the payment sits alongside those requirements rather than in place of them. The reliable approach is to read the executive order and the official programme page directly, note the date on which they were read, and take advice from a licensed U.S. immigration attorney on what the current terms mean for a particular applicant.
A company resolution does not establish EB-1 or EB-2 eligibility, admissibility or visa availability, and an employee should not describe conditional future funding as already settled. Build a short chronology from documents, with a date and a source beside each entry: the sponsorship agreement, any filing receipt or notice, the vetting outcome if one was issued, the payment confirmation, and the notice of termination.
