L-1A nonimmigrant visa, intracompany transferee
If you do not have close relatives in the U.S. and an employer who wants to hire you immediately, the easiest and most reliable way to relocate to the U.S. with the right to work is L-1A visa (Intracompany transfer).
The main idea of the visa is to enable a multinational company to transfer an executive from a foreign office to a U.S. office. However, the visa also allows you to transfer an executive from a foreign company to a newly established U.S. office.
If you are a top manager in a foreign business (for example, in Russia), which opens an affiliate company in the United States, you can get a one-year L-1A visa to work in this company, and in case of successful development of the business you can extend this visa to 7 years and get permanent residency (Green Card) and citizenship.
We not only handle the entire immigration case from filing the documents for a visa to obtaining citizenship, but also help to open a company in the United States, prepare a business plan necessary in this case and translate the documents of the Russian company into English. Our law firm staff has the background necessary to prepare the economic component of the case, which is the main and most complex part of the L-1A visa application.
