Hi
I have been working for my employer A for the past 7 Yrs.
Thru him, i got H1B visa and got few opportunities to work in US. Even though it was not continuous, i spent close to 4 yrs in US.
I got relocated to India due to family reasons and i am currently working in India for the same employer for the past 1 year.
I have questions with respect to L1A Individual.
I am doing Managerial/ Supervisor role here in India for the past 1 year.
Technically, is it possible to raise L1A-Ind (new) by my current employer at this point ?
The reason for asking is that i have close to 2 yrs remaining/ left in my H1B visa.
1) Will USCIS accept my L1A-Ind visa (new) request ?
2) Will it get approved easily (or) will USCIS reject L1A-Ind request stating that H1B is still alive and ask me to finish off the remaining H1B quota (close to 2 years) ?
3) Incase, if USCIS is okay to approve the L1A Ind, will they grant me only 3 years of Visa, as i already spent 4 years in H1B Visa ?
Could you Pls share your views/ opinion on the above queries ?
Thanks !
