I am working for an MNC in india.Recently i got H1 stamped thru a consultant in US.But my company ppl wants to be go on longtermL1 visa.If i go on H1 visa ,,,i should go to US n start fishing. What should i perfer,,,,i am a DBA.

Answer 1

L1 allows the employers in the US permission to transfer employees to and fro the companies wherever they are in the world. The only pre-requisite for this visa is that the employee should be part of any of the subsidiary, affiliate or branch of the company, which has obtained the L1 visa. The limit for this type of visa is 7 years for managers and executives.

The H1B visa is an occupation-specialized visa that is issued for the host company with a yearly limitation on the number of staff. The employer, not the employee applies for this visa, for a period of up to six years.
