L-1 Visas

L-1 visas for intracompany transferees are receiving more scrutiny by USCIS. A recent case decided by the USCIS Appeals Board (AAO) severely restricted the definition of a specialized knowledge worker. Requests for additional evidence and requests for documents (in addition to the employer's explanation) verifying the employee's specialized knowledge are now common.
