Legal Help to Manage the Process of Executive Employee Transfers
The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration office provides work visas that have no quota restrictions to management and specialized workers transferring into the U.S. with a business.
L visas are available for executive and specialized, highly skilled employees who currently live outside the U.S. but want to transfer into a U.S. subsidiary, affiliate company, or joint-venture business partner of a non-U.S. company.
A company can transfer high level executives to the U.S. in order to establish a branch business. If the executive employee is already in the U.S., he or she may be eligible for a change of status to an L-1 without having to leave the country.
The process of applying for an L1A or L1B visa for corporate transferees can be confusing and time-consuming. Let the business immigration professionals at WHGC help. Not only do we assist businesses with immigration issues, we can provide sound legal guidance on business and investment matters as well.
