A comparison of the differences between L 1 visa and investment immigrants in the United States

L- 1 visa is a "non-immigrant visa". When applying for internal transfer of L- 1 employee visa, the American company you want to transfer to must submit the I- 129 application form to USCIS for you.

You must prove that you have been employed by your company outside the United States for at least one year in the past three years, and this position must be at the manager level, supervisor level, or have special professional knowledge, and this American company is a branch, head office, affiliated enterprise or subsidiary of your current company.
