Hi,

1 yr left over in the H1.Can I apply for L1? If yes, will I get L1 for 1yr(remaining duration in H1) or 5 yrs?

Thanks!

For an L1, you have to have worked for the company abroad for at least 1 year in the last 3 years. If you were on H1 for the last 5 years, that's pretty much impossible.

L1 + H1b = 6 year limited.
