L1-B visa extension

Applying New L1 from Canada instead of L1 Extension

Asking the same question again and again will not change the answer. If you are filing a fresh H1 then its start date will only be 01-Oct-2013 or later. On what visa are you going to stay in US from 23rd March 2013 till 01-Oct-2013? You dont have a valid I-94 or visa to stay in US during this period. The only way for you to not go back to home country and continue work is to apply for L1 extension and get it approved.

This is my opinion not legal advice.

Hi Raghvi - I heard that a fresh L1 Petition can be file from Canada and get stamped and come back to US. Is this possible, Can u pls share some opinions and thoughts on the same. Heard that this is more favourable than L1 Extension in current situation
