Hello,
I would appreciate some advice/help from you regarding which visa can/should I travel on to the US?
Background
My Questions are
My perspective is that I should be able to travel on the existing visa or a new L1. I am basing my statement on the following line L classification applies to intracompany transferees who, within the three preceding years, have been employed abroad continuously for one year, and who will be employed by a branch, parent, affiliate, or subsidiary of that same employer in the U.S. in a managerial, executive, or specialized knowledge capacity. I picked this up from the department of state website.
Any help would be appreciated!!
