Show the answer and walk-through

CBP's answer: A. A: The number of trade compliance employees hired by the drawback claimant in the last 12 months.

Section 190.92(e)(1) lists the criteria CBP considers: unresolved CBP charges, accuracy of past drawback claims, and earlier revocation or suspension of accelerated payment or waiver of prior notice. The number of trade compliance employees hired is not listed, so A is the item that is not identified.
