You are lucky that caseworker is inquiring documents from you. Because of so many mandatory documents missing from your application. Documents like proper contract, and wrong format of bank letter. Caseworker could have refused your application for missing documents.
Anyway, give them what they ask for.... I am unable to understand from your post that what kind of help are you looking for?

Are you sure you have applied for T1 Entrepreneur route? In that route, you need to show contracts for your existing registered business from your client/s. The format of contract varies between businesses, just a simple google search will show you templates which you can select accordingly to fit your business.

True!
Only PSW ones can apply for £50,000 sponsor.
Non-PSW ones have to go for £200,000 (unless they are being sponsored by seeding firms)
