Can the boss immigrate to America?

Getting an L 1 visa is more suitable for you.

The interpretation of 1 L- 1 noun

L- 1 refers to the visa or identity of a transferred manager or employee with special skills in a multinational company. As far as China is concerned, businessmen with a certain scale in China and branches in the United States can apply for L- 1 visa, and their senior managers or employees with special skills will be transferred to branches in the United States. The law allows the applicant's family to accompany him.

2.L- 1 Advantages of the 16th National Congress of Visa

1) allows multiple entries.

L- 1 is valid for one to three years at a time and is divided into one-time entry and multiple entry and exit. Generally speaking, L- 1 is easier to obtain multiple entry permits, which saves a lot of unnecessary trouble.

2) Fast application.

L- 1 visa does not need to wait for quotas and scheduling, and the application and approval time is short. You can get the first application within 3 months at the earliest.

3) You can stay in America for a long time.

Generally speaking, the L 1 visa is valid for one year. When it expires, it can be extended. Usually you can get a visa for two years at a time. L- 1B managers and supervisors can stay in the United States for up to seven years, and L- 1B special knowledge personnel can't stay for more than five years.

4) Can the whole family go to America?

L- 1 family members (spouses and unmarried children under 2 1) can obtain L-2 status and go to the United States with them. After going through the relevant formalities, the family members of L- 1 can attend American public schools and enjoy local tuition fees. This is very attractive to China people who value education. In 2002, the new law also allowed L-2, the spouse of L- 1, to apply for a work card in the United States and work legally.

5) Many people can apply.

To set up a branch in the United States, the head office can usually send 2-3 people, who can apply for L2 visas for their families and children. You can apply for studying in the United States for family members of multiple families at the same time and enjoy various benefits in the United States.

6) Can work legally

L2, the spouse of L 1, can apply for a work card in the United States and work legally, which can greatly reduce the economic pressure of L 1 holders.

7) You can apply for a green card.

L 1 Visa holders can directly apply for a green card in the form of the first priority labor migration without the approval of the US Department of Labor, and directly obtain permanent residency in the United States without any immigration quota restrictions. Compared with an investment immigrant who needs 500,000 or 6.5438+0 million dollars and employs at least 654.38+00 Americans, the holder of L-654.38+0 not only gets a green card quickly, but also does not need a lot of capital investment.

8) Free access

L 1 visa holders are free to travel in the United States or abroad during the period of applying for a green card. Many other types of green card applicants are not allowed to enter and leave the country freely without "early parole" during the application period.

9) There can be a "double tendency"

L 1 visa can make the applicant have a "double inclination"-the US government stipulates that officials of foreign embassies and consulates do not need L 1 visa applicants to prove that they have no intention to emigrate. At the same time, the interview of L 1 holders when applying for a green card can be held in the office of the US Immigration Bureau, not in their own embassies and consulates.

10) has no nationality restrictions.

L 1 visa is applicable to enterprises established in any country. As long as these enterprises set up branches in the United States, they can send managers, supervisors and special knowledge personnel to the United States to develop their business.

1 1) There is no scale restriction.

American law does not specifically require multinational enterprises applying for L 1 to make large investments, nor does it stipulate a special amount of registered capital.

12) No business restrictions.

American law does not stipulate that multinational enterprises applying for L 1 must engage in similar or related forms of business dealings with their American subsidiaries, as long as they maintain formal ownership subordination.

13) No salary requirement.

L- 1 Visa holders may not pay according to the minimum wage standard in the US labor market, and the salary level of employees in the US branch may be determined by the parent company with reference to the local living standards of the US subsidiary.

14) No degree requirements.

L Visa requires that the applicant must have worked as a senior manager (L- 1A) or a professional technician (L- 1B) for at least one year in the past three years, but there is no minimum education and language requirement.

15) No industry restrictions.

American law does not stipulate that the parent company and its subsidiaries applying for L/KLOC-0 visa must engage in certain industries (except special industries such as hospitals and banks).

16) There is no limit.

At present, the United States has not put forward quota restrictions on L 1 visas. Holders don't have to worry about a long quota schedule or endless waiting when applying for a green card.

Compared with the investment immigrants who need 500,000 or 6,543.8+0,000 dollars, the holders of L654.38+0 not only get the green card quickly, but also do not need a lot of capital investment, which is a shortcut for immigrants who are interested in starting a business in the United States. In the process of applying for a visa at the consulate, the visa officer shall not refuse the visa because the L 1 visa gives the applicant the freedom to immigrate or not.
