VSC Practice Pointer: L-1B to L-1A Conversion
The $500 fraud fee is not required, since the (VSC) does not consider this a
"change of status," but a change in the conditions of employment.
In regard to completing Form I-129, VSC provided the following
guidance:
- Changing from L-1B to L-1A and requesting an extension of stay:
- Part 2.2 Basis for Classification: indicate c. "Change in previously
approved employment"
- Part 5 Requested Action: indicate c. "Extend the stay of the
person(s) since they now hold this status"
- Changing from L-1B to L-1A without an extension request for
additional time:
- Part 2.2 Basis for Classification: indicate c. "Change in
previously approved employment"
- Part 5 Requested Action: indicate d. "Amend the stay of the
person(s) since they now hold this status"
