L1B to L1A Conversion

Hi Rajiv,

I am currently on L1B and have been recently promoted to a managerial position wherein I am leading a team of professionals. I have no people management experience outside US with my present employer although I managed a process/function independantly.

Am I eligible for a L1B to L1A conversion? If not, can i still file GC under EB1 using multinational manager category

Thanks

Hi Rajiv,
Iam currently on L2 visa which is valid till Oct 2010 and I do have EAD. Iam planning to start my work with company A starting from Jan 2010 and the company A is willing to sponsor me H1B visa. Before to this L2 visa I was working on H1 visa for a different employer and the visa got expired in April 2009.

Here is my question

1. Do I have to go through the cap for my new H1 visa?
2. Can I apply for H1b visa with change of status?
3. If my h1b petition approved by March 2010 using premium processing, from April2010 can I start working on H1B visa?
4. If all the above said things happened successfully, Iam planning to go India by Oct 2010 to get my H1b stamping. Please let me know, if I need to worry anything about the visa stamping?

Thanks in advance
