two law firms gave different versions of E2 visa requirements

I am a Canadian interested in the E2 investors visa to start a new business in the US. I contacted two law firms and got two different versions of the requirements. Before I pay another law firms consulting fee to get a third opinion I thought I'd see if anyone on Reddit can offer help.

The first law firm said that I do not need a location yet for the new business. They said I could apply with no location set. After I get the visa I can go to the US to select a location and set the store up.

The second law firm said that to set up a new business I need to show significant risk to my investment. Before I can even apply for the visa I have to go down to the US, select a location, sign lease, pay rent, completely set up store and hire staff. Then I can apply for a visa. If I do not do that I will be declined by the US consulate.

which of these is correct? thanks for any help

At the same time April 2021 showed up on my account as the expected completion date. Last week, the status was "17 days". Today the estimated time of completion has disappeared!!! Any idea what that means? More importantly - When I click on "View PDF" link under "N-400 Application for Naturalization", to see my actual N-400 form, I get " {"data":null,"error":{"developerMessage":null,"userMessage":null}} " message! The form is also missing under "Documents -> Your Uploads" tab! So, it appears that my N400 form is missing! What does that all mean, considering that it's impossible to file without N400 form! Finally, under profile, My name is incorrectly sp...
