LLC ownership is governed by a private agreement among the members called an "operating agreement." It is not filed with the state, and the state has no way of knowing (and doesn't care) what the ownership interests are. You can prove the ownership interests by providing a certified copy of your operating agreement and partnership tax return to the relevant federal government agency. See an attorney to handle the mechanics of this.
