Three L-1A approvals across three companies — fastest in 2 weeks

Three first-time L-1A petitions filed across three different sponsoring companies were each approved — fastest at roughly two weeks. The team's L-class approval rate remains 100%.

Case 1 (high-tech multinational, premium): the challenge was articulating the beneficiary's senior managerial scope across both the China parent and the U.S. subsidiary, in an industry with strong technical entry barriers. Approved without RFE.

Case 2 (established U.S. entity, premium): the U.S. company was at an early-stage with a 3-person team. After clarifying parent-subsidiary equity and demonstrating the U.S. operation's viability, the petition cleared after a single RFE response. Approved January 14, 2026.

Case 3 (New Office, premium): the China parent was an investment-management entity while the U.S. company was operational technology — different lines of business. The U.S. business plan became the centerpiece, mapping how the parent's resources, management, and strategy supported the U.S. operation, and how the beneficiary's parent-company experience would translate. We pre-built the path to a future three-tier managerial structure to address sustainability concerns. Approved without RFE.

L-1A also lays the groundwork for future EB-1C green-card petitions when company structure and managerial duties are designed correctly from the start.
