Sentence structure analysis?

This is an opportunity for the petitioner to articulate further details, provides additional evidence in regards to how the evidence submitted in the intitial filling, or in response to this Request for Evidence establishes that the beneficiary meets the requirements regarding the required high level of expertise for the immigrant classification.

1. Hi. Why is the first underlined part not “details and provide”?

2. I cannot understand the grammar structure of the second underlined part. Could you please analyze it?

Thank you.

  • Either the comma after "filing" should be deleted, or another one should be added after "Request for Evidence".
