Hi,

I hold a US L1B visa which is about to expire in March 2014. Till date I have not travelled to US on this visa(L1B) and spent most of the time working in my home country. Now, I am expected to travel to US on L1B in Jan, 2014 for an assignment of 1year, I have 3 questions here:
1) For what duration can I get 1-94 at port of entry in US ? Till expiry of my L1B or upto 1 year.
2) In case I get 1-94 for a short duration (say till March 2014) and then I go for L1B extension, will I have an edge as I spent most of the tenure in my home country and came to US just near L1B expiry.
3) or should I apply for new L1B in my home country and then only travel to US to avoid any complications ? If Yes, is it possible to apply for new blanket L1B before expiry of my existing L1B visa ?
