What Is an L-1 Visa and Who Qualifies?

An L-1 Visa enables companies to transfer employees from a foreign office to their U.S. counterparts. Eligible candidates include executives, managers, and those with specialized knowledge who have worked for the overseas company for a minimum of one year in the preceding three years.

The processing time for an L-1 Visa can vary. Standard processing may take several months; however, premium processing is available, reducing the timeline to approximately 15 days for an additional fee. At Law Office of Gregory J. Eck, LLC, we assist in navigating these timelines effectively.

Can My Family Accompany Me on an L-1 Visa?

Yes, family members can accompany an L-1 Visa holder to the U.S. under the L-2 Visa category. This includes spouses and unmarried children under 21. The L-2 Visa grants eligible family members the opportunity to seek employment upon arrival.
