L1 B five years stay


bk2014

Recommended Posts

Hi ,

 

I am finishing my five years of continuous stay in US on 2nd July 2015 however I had 5 weeks of leave in between these five years.

 

Can I stay until 6th Aug 2015 ( 2nd July 2015 + 5 weeks of Vacation ) ?  

My I-94 expiry is 22nd  Nov 2015.

 

If yes then please let me know if i need to complete any formalities at USCIS level.

 

Please advise...

 

 

Thanks,

At the time of entry to the US I got my I-94 beyond my Visa date.

L1B Visa Date: Apr 2011 to Apr 2014.

I-94 end date: June 2016

Completing 5 years of stay on L1B in Apr 2016.

My Company is filing L1A extention in May 2016. Can i stay in the US until my L1A decision is declared, irrespective of completing 5 years of stay on L1-B?

 

Thank You!

To stay beyond L1B max date of April 2016 your employer has to file a COS to L1A before April 2016.

Thanks for the reponse. If employer files COS to L1A and the decision is pending beyond April 2016 at USCIS can we stay in the US on receipt number until the decision is declared?

Yes you can stay, but I believe you cannot work for the employer (I might be wrong with the working part).
