HOW CAN FILIPINOS BE QUALIFIED FOR AN L-1 US VISA?

Philippine Practice Team for Immigration Solution Davies & Associates has a dedicated Philippine Practice Team composed of dual-qualified, well-credentialed and highly trained lawyers to address your visa needs. Our team is focused on tailoring visa solutions to meet the personal, professional or business requirements of Filipino clients. Given the various options and the complexities of each pathway, Davies & Associates will determine the right visa for you and guide you every step of the way.


If you have an existing and viable business in the Philippines and you want to expand your operations in the U.S., you may qualify for L-1 transfer visa. The L-1 visa is ideal for small businesses and start-ups as it permits the transfer of managers and executives who possess direct knowledge of operations as well as the goals of the main office. Multi-national companies can also use the L-1 visa to develop a new market in the U.S.
Whether you are small business or a multi-national company based in the Philippines, the L-1 visa will facilitate the needs of intra-company transfers. There are two types of L-1 visa classification: L-1A Intracompany transferee, executive or manager and L-1B Intracompany Transferee Specialized Knowledge.
The L-1A nonimmigrant classification enables a U.S. employer to transfer an executive or manager from one of its affiliated foreign offices to one of its offices in the United States. This classification also enables a foreign company which does not yet have an affiliated U.S. office to send an executive or manager to the United States with the purpose of establishing one.
The L-1B nonimmigrant classification enables a U.S. employer to transfer a professional employee with specialized knowledge relating to the organization’s interests from one of its affiliated foreign offices to one of its offices in the United States. This classification also enables a foreign company which does not yet have an affiliated U.S. office to send a specialized knowledge employee to the United States to help establish one.
Take the crucial next step by contacting us at Davies & Associates. We will guide you through every step of the way to make your vision a reality.

"After finding D&A through an internet search in 2020, my wife and I had several free consultations with David Cantor. Despite our initial attempt at filing for our E2 visa independently ending in failure, we decided to hire D&A for their expertise and support. Over the course of four long years, Verdie and Cristina were incredibly patient as we took our time to prepare for the E2 submission. Verdie became our E2 Attorney in 2021, and from the start, Verdie and Cristina's patience was evident. Despite our intermittent engagement over the years, they always treated us with the utmost attention. Working with Verdie and the D&A team was a pleasure; their professionalism and support were unwavering. Verdie's calm demeanor and succinct communication style made navigating the process much smoother, even during complex discussions. I wholeheartedly recommend Verdie and D&A - Davies & Associates, to anyone seeking an immigration law firm who can efficiently handle their case with precision and without unnecessary fanfare. Their ability to get things done speaks volumes about their dedication to their clients' success."
