hello im from the Philippines!


I have filed I-140 ( as what i have understood this is immigrant visa)
since it is still retrogression...


my Receipt notice is not yet out..

And there is an employer calling me and offering me and L1 visa...

:confused::confused:

i'm still pushing through my Immigrant visa application.. but IF i will accept the job offer which would give me the L1 visa..would it affect my immigrant visa application?

I also wouldn't want to jeopardize my Immigrant visa application...

By the way!

the one employer who filed the I-140 for me is different from the one who is offering me the L1 visa


PLs help on this..


these are my questions....


1. would accepting the offer to have a L1 visa..affect the processing of my Green Card application (immigrant application)?

2. would the L1 visa cancel my application for immigrant visa..

I hope you can answer my queries..
 
I-140 is an immigrant petition, not a visa. Once the I-140 is approved you can apply for the immigrant visa at a consulate, or once the I-140 is filed and your priority date is current you can file a I-485 to complete the green card process within the US.

Regarding the L1 ... it is not required to have nonimmigrant intent to get an L1, so your I-140 will not damage your L1 chances (assuming no fraud).

Regarding your I-140 ... did they file a labor certification for you before that? Because you are dealing with two different companies, it doesn't look like you would qualify to go straight to I-140 as a multinational manager.

If it's for an RN, that's a Schedule A occupation and no LC is required. I wouldn't switch jobs until the I-140 is approved, that way the priority date can be retained for a future GC application.
