Has anyone applied for a L1 visa (and got it approved) recently? I have got the internal approval for transfer from Deloitte USI to Deloitte US, and now my L1 visa is in process. Want to know how are the things on immigration side now?

I am in the same boat. As of today most embassies in India are closed.Those which are open, are operating in super low capacity and prioritising J and F category of visas for students joining the fall semesters in US universities. Hence my firm mobility team has asked me to wait until October/ November, when more embassies open up and visa appointment slots are available.

Petition approval by USCIS is only required when applying for a L1 individual visa. Firms like Mckinsey, Deloitte and other global MNC’s already have this petition approved from USCIS and are able to transfer their employees under the L1 blanket visa category and hence no individual petition filing is required. I have also been talking to a couple of immigration attorneys and they all believe that embassy closures, limited capacity and huge visa backlogs are the prime reasons which have made securing a L1 visa difficult at the moment.

It is L1A or L1B ? And is it filed in n premium mode? Expect RFE if filed in premium and then give 3 months for petition approval. Once you have an approved petition then appointment for stamping … so 5-6 months easy assuming consulate opens up by then.

Luggage delay claim question

I used Chase explorer to buy tickets for my vacation and luggages were delayed for a month. Per chase term I am entitled $100 a day for 3 days. But the claim agency chase used has been asking for airlines response, which has not came (2month+ now). I am concerned insurance will use this as an excuse to never compensate. Is there a good way to handle this situation?
TIA
