L1A extension RFE and travel to India

[contactsai]

Hello everyone. Here is my situation:

L1A blanket visa / I129S has expired on Aug 13 2017
I-94 is valid until Apr 2020
I-797 valid indefinitely

My L1A extension is filed in Premium and received RFE notice couple of days ago.

I need to travel to India for an important personal work by Oct last week for 2 weeks. Would it be advisable to travel now and return to US?

Also how is the L1A blanket extension approval rate?

Looking forward to your advice.

If you travel outside USA, you will need stamped visa to re-enter USA. So you will have to wait outside USA till you get your L1A extension approved. Since you file your extension in premium, the 15 calendar day clock will reset from the date USCIS receives your RFE response. So you should able to get decision soon.

I don't know about L1A extension approval rate. As long as you have proper documents for RFE response, it should get approved.
