Since your L1 is on premium, you should get response within 15 days.

Do not worry about the status shown online - at times it is not updated regularly.

L1A , I will get response..what about L2 , there is no premium processing for L2 and EAD depends on L2..how will I respond to the RFE, if I only get L1A approved petition. After how many days /months L2 gets approved after L1?

For L2, what you file is 539 which is extension of stay (i.e. I94). If that is so urgent, you can drive/fly to Canada/Mexico/Caribbean & get a renewed I94 (for L2) upon re-entering.

Following that you can submit new I94 & approved L1 as response of RFE.

Without approved L2 can I fly out of the country with only L1A petition and get L1 and L2 both stamped? If I only submit my L1A petition as an RFE response..will they reject...or is it advisable to withdraw the EAD?

Yes, you can consult your attorney/HR as well. L2 extension is dependent on L1.

Is your I94 expired ? or still valid ?

If your L1 is approved, you can go out of country, get L1 & L2 stamped together (keep the L2 extension receipt handy) & return to USA.

If I only submit my L1A petition as an RFE response..will they reject.

I'll have someone else known about EAD help here.

Is it advisable to withdraw the EAD?

It depends, if you have time to visit home country, get visa stamped, return & then re-apply for EAD - yes you can withdraw it.

If I withdraw it, can I re-apply again once I get both L1 and L2 petition, how much time will it take in that case?

Yes, you can re-apply.

Not sure how much time it is taking now-a-days - but consider it will be in months.
