Anyone knows L1A renewal timelines ? pls share & help !
Hi everyone , my L1A visa expires in May 2024.
My company plans on starting the renewals process in Oct / Nov of this year ( ~ 6 months prior to expiry ). They said 6 months is sufficient advance timing but I wanted to check here if anyone has recent actual experience on time taking for renewal. I also plan to go to India in Dec for a month so hopefully that doesn’t complicate things as well ! ( not too worried about AP cause my visa is multiple entry )
thanks everyone in advance

check what your visa expiry date, my was 1 year earlier before actual I-94 expiry date, which means I am legally allowed to continue work till end of I -94 end date, and renew L1A before that, but I couldn’t travel abroad without a new visa stamp on my passport. To answer your question, 6 months should be fine, that was what my company and lawyer suggested as well, though I did not needed it as i got H1-B earlier first ( I decided to keep H1-B because i have my 140 approved at that time)
