L1B- Intra company transfer of specialized knowledge employees are cases that have seen disproportionate scrutiny and denials in the past few years. Yesterday, President Obama announced at the SelectUSA summit in Washington DC that a new L1B memo was imminent. Today USCIS issued the policy memo. There will be a comment period until May 2015. This is a particularly necessary step as the world gets smaller and businesses become more global. I hope to see improvements that will not only benefit our business clients but also bring more business and investment into the US.
