No. Establish the actual transferee’s qualifying chronology and duties.
Connect the person with the operation
The company’s history and the employee’s history are different facts. Identify the relevant employer, period and actual work.
The ownership stack shows the qualifying relationship: the registers, the agreements, the corporate filings that each jurisdiction requires, and any trust or holding-company documents that sit between the individuals and the operating companies. Corporate documents should prove the parent, branch, subsidiary, or affiliate relationship and that the foreign side conducts active business; unless the US operation qualifies as a new office, they should also prove that the US side conducts active business. Decide what will be produced monthly — invoices raised, payroll run, filings made, contracts signed — nominate the person who confirms each month that it exists, and review the accumulated record quarterly against what a stranger would make of it. Recent financial statements, sales invoices, lease agreements and payroll registers for both sides establish regular and continuous activity, which is why a dormant holding company on either end causes difficulty.
