The L-1A Visa program began in 1970, without a limit on the number of visas issued. The simplest way to benefit from the L-1A visa program is to register a new company or invest in a local company in the United States, holding at least 51% of the shares. Generally, eligibility for the L-1A visa requires meeting the following conditions:
The United States company and the foreign company must have a parent-subsidiary, branch, or affiliate relationship;
The applicant must have served as an executive or manager in the foreign company for at least one year in the past three years;
The United States company must have a physical office;
The applicant must serve as an executive or manager in the United States company;
The United States company must provide proof of business for the last year, demonstrating profitability and the ability to economically support the applicant’s position.
The most important is after working in the United States company for a year with an L-1A visa, the applicant can apply for an EB-1C green card, which grants permanent residency and the ability to live in the United States long term.
