L-1 Visa Issues

The L-1 visa allows international companies to transfer employees between offices in different countries. There are two types: L-1A for managers/executives and L-1B for employees with specialized knowledge. Common issues include proving the employee's eligibility, showing a qualifying relationship between U.S. and foreign offices, and ensuring the position in the U.S. requires managerial or specialized skills. Misunderstandings about the requirements can lead to visa denial. It’s essential for applicants to provide clear documentation and comply with U.S. immigration laws to navigate these challenges successfully.
