I need to travel to the US urgently next week. My L1

petition is approved, but I am yet to go for the interview.

However, since this process takes atleast 10 days, my

company cannot open that long, and they want to travel me

first on B1 for 6 weeks, come back and take my L1 interview

as soon as I return. I heard from a friend that if we

travel to the US on B1, we should wait for a month atleast

before we can apply for L1 interview, otherwise they will

reject the L1. Is this true ? If yes, could you please

direct me to the website/literature where this rule is

mentioned so that I can convey the same to my company ? I

would greatly appreciate if you could reply as soon as

possible, as I have to travel in a week's time.

Thanks,
Deepthi
