L1-A to L1 BLANKET URGENT ADVICE!!!

Registered Users (C)
Here's my situation:
Currently I’m working with employer A with a L1-A visa.
Employer B, which is a large multinational corporation, is offering me a position in US and is able to sponsor an L1 Blanket visa, given that I worked with one of their foreign subsidiaries from September 2001 to February 2003.

I'm confused about the “3-year period” rule. According to this rule: “L-1 nonimmigrants are required to have been employed continuously by a parent, subsidiary or other affiliate of the petitioning company for one year in the 3-year period of time preceding the alien's application for admission to the U.S.”

My question is: Do I qualify for L1 Blanket, considering that I have worked with a foreign subsidiary continuously for more than 1 year in the previous 3 years? How this “3-year period” applies to my case?

I appreciate your advice.
 
Hello sniper,

I have not heard of any blanket L1? Does that mean you can be on L1 indifinitely? I am on L1 and my AOS ran into problems with my I140 now with AAO. If there is such thing as blanket L1 that allow me to stay and work here indifinitely, I will not even want to get my GC.

Appreciate anyone to shed some light.

Thanks.
 
Blanket Petitions are taken by US copanies and allow candidate sto enter to US on L1 within short time frame - Only interview is needed at US COnsulate.

You must have worked for them at least 1 continuous year of LAST 3 years.
I guess you are not qualified to L1B for new offer.
