Hi All,


I am having 6 years of IT experience and my Education qualification is B.E ( in Mechanical ).I have applied for L1-Premium.. But company had converted to L1-Blanket.

Will my Education qualification creates problem for L1-Blanket petition??

I heard that for L1-Blanket petition person must be from computer science background.. My stamping is at 28th of this month.Please clarify me regarding this... with your experience.. pleaseeee...

As with the individual L petition, the beneficiaries must be executives, managers, or possess "specialized knowledge" regarding the company.

Specialized knowledge for individual petitions is defined as including persons who "have special knowledge of the company product and its application in international markets or has an advanced level of knowledge of processes and procedures of the company."

For a blanket petition, the individual must both meet this definition and be a professional. The term "professional" is defined in immigration law to include, but is not limited to: architects, engineers, lawyers, physicians, surgeons, and teachers in elementary school or above. This limitation does not exist in the individual L category. This requirement is important for companies considering use of the blanket procedure in order to bring specialized-knowledge individuals to the U.S.

The result depends on how your employer presents you to USCIS. You should discuss this matter with your company's attorney.
