Hi I'm currently on L1A.

What are the eligibility criteria to apply for GC in EB1 category? Do i have to be in a lead/managerial position at offshore for atleast one year to be eligible for EB1 category? Please advice.

Thanks

Yes. http://www.uscis.gov/working-united-...reference-eb-1

You must have been employed outside the United States in the 3 years preceding the petition for at least 1 year by a firm or corporation and you must be seeking to enter the United States to continue service to that firm or organization. Your employment must have been outside the United States in a managerial or executive capacity and with the same employer, an affiliate, or a subsidiary of the employer.

Your petitioning employer must be a U.S. employer. Your employer must have been doing business for at least 1 year, as an affiliate, a subsidiary, or as the same corporation or other legal entity that employed you abroad.


This is my opinion not legal advice.
