Hi,
I am currently on L1A visa working in the United States.
I am planning to take an unpaid leave for 4-6 weeks and then continue with my work for some personal reasons. Not medical reasons and I am not going out of the country.
My company is ok with me to take the leave as they have no objections.

Question:
1. How long can I go on an unpaid leave in the US on an L1 visa?
2. Is 6 weeks too much?
3. Is it better to go for 4 weeks only unpaid?
4. Is it not legal to stay in the US unpaid for a month?

Please do let me know as soon as possible, as I may have to take decisions based on the same.
(Main reason - I need to take a break due to stress at work)
