Hi folks - 1485 and EAD is pending, but L1A is expiring in July 2020. Was advised to extend. Would you apply through USCIS, or an embassy abroad? Concerned about rejection, and admin processing risks

Embassy abroad. Not in India though.

the EAD should take 6 months right? isn't it better to way for it?

Hi all! I’m new! I started the year off planning to save for a home for myself, then rates skyrocketed. So we’re holding off. Fast forward to the final quarter of the year and we were presented with the idea of a residential assisted living facility. The problem there is we’d still need to acquire property in order to run one. The only difference is the RAL would be a business and is already registered as such. Does anyone have any experience here?
