Legal Answers
211 Questions Answered
- Q. L1A to H1B: Status change & stamping concerns?
- A: H1B is subject to a cap and a lottery so you need to be selected in order to change status to H1B. Any time spent in L1 status counts towards the 6-year limit in H1B status. If your H1B is selected and approved, you may or may not go for H1B stamping. If the H1B stamping is not approved, you may return to the US on your valid L1A visa, which expires in September 2026 if the L1A job still exists.
- Q. Can I use Employer 1's H1B visa for US travel after changing to Employer 2?
- A: The unexpired H1B visa obtained from Employer 1 may be used to enter the US to work for approved H1B employer 2
- Q. Guidance on qualifications and documents for R-1 visa after OPT completion.
- A: Among other things, proof that the R1 applicant has been a member of the religious denomination for at least 2 years immediately preceding the filing is needed. Work with an immigration attorney.
