Question about the home-return obligation on an intracompany transferee visa
I’m here on an intracompany transferee (L-1) type visa that carries a home-return obligation.
I’ve heard it’s possible to file for immigration by getting this return obligation waived — I’d like to know if that’s true.
If you’re subject to a home-return obligation under this type of visa, you can go through a waiver process to have it excused. Once the waiver is granted, you can file for immigration. Unless you’ve received significant government benefits from your home country, most cases are granted, but it varies case by case, so review by an immigration attorney would be needed.
