Hi, I’m taking L1A in the US now. if I accept the rotation instruction from the headquarter to another region. It means I need to leave the current US company & my L1A will be expired. So will I have the 60days Grace Period then? thanks & best regard,

Hi @JC68913 I don’t understand your question. What kind of 60 day grace are you talking about? You want to stay in US for 60 days after leaving company or what? You may be confused with H1B 60 day grace period , which is not applicable for L1A.

Dear Anil, thanks for the prompt reply. Yes, I’d like to know if I leave the US company that I’m working by L1A, will we get some time to handle the personal issues then leave US. From your answer, seems L1A no grace period, so does it mean we need to leave US immediately, does there be any other…

hi Anil, I do appreciate all your time & answers always. for L1 Grace Period, I found some info from gov. website : https://www.ecfr.gov/cgi-bin/text-idx?rgn=div5;node=8%3A1.0.1.2.18#se8.1.214_11 it doesn’t look like a Grace Period, but seems some period of stay could be approvable. am I right? …

Dear Anil. everything good, I believe you & your family will be very safe due to you help so many people. : ) one more question, my EAD & AP passed yesterday. but the EB1C interview was cancelled due to USCIS shutdown through May 3rd (best case). I understand I can stay US with EAD after 485 pend…

It is better if you stay employed. Do not take any risk.

I appreciate all your answers all the time. my case & last status: EB1C, PD 3/14/2019, ROW, Combo got, 485 RFE submitted (health exam reports) for 4 weeks already. My 485 already pending over 180 days, base on AC21, it’s legal to change job now. and I also found the new employer who’s willing to …

Hi @JC68913 You should share the discussion you had with your Employer’s attorney too. This is a discussion platform and we can help only if share your research and analysis too. It cannot be a one way traffic. Supplement J is required to be submitted by new employer.
