Opening an office: An L-1 visa is also the appropriate visa
classification for a qualified employee of an international company who
is coming to the United States to establish a parent, branch, affiliate
or subsidiary in the United States, i.e. commence business. When filing
the petition, the international company will be required to show that
sufficient physical premises to house the new office have been secured
and that within one year of the approval of the petition, the intended
U.S. operation will support an executive or managerial position. In the
case of a person with specialized knowledge, the petitioner will be
required to show that it has the financial ability to remunerate the
beneficiary and to commence doing business in the United States. A
petition for a qualified employee of a new office will be approved for a
period not to exceed one year, after which the petitioner must
demonstrate that it is doing business as described above in order for
the petition and alien’s stay to be extended beyond one year. is
