L-1 visas. These are called Intracompany Transfer visas for Manager, Executives, and Workers with Specialized Knowledge. This visa requires at least two related companies, one inside the US and one outside the US that is a branch, subsidiary, affiliate or joint venture partner of the US Company. The foreign company must already employ the worker outside of the US in order for the worker to be eligible to be transferred to the US company as a L-visa-holder. Like H visas, the L visa can be issued relatively quickly. The worker may travel in and out of the US or remain in the US continuously until the L-1 status expires. Visas are available for accompanying relatives. One great advantage to the L-1 visa is that an executive or manager with an L-1 visa can obtain a green card through employment through a more streamlined process than most workers. Children
