US Tightens H-1B Rules: Is L-1 visa a strong alternative for Indian professionals?

Obtaining an H-1B visa is becoming increasingly difficult for foreign workers. Many immigration experts suggest that the L-1 visa serves as an alternative to the H-1B visa. Andri Boiko, Founder & CEO, Garant In says, “Yes, the L1 visa can serve as an alternative to the H-1B visa, but it addresses a different set of needs and qualifications in the U.S. immigration system. Both visas allow foreign professionals to live and work in the U.S. temporarily, but they differ significantly in requirements, eligibility, and usage.”
