Question on travelling outside US while L1 renewal is going on. I have a L1 expiring in Jan 2023 and I am planning to visit my home country for a month in November. My company has also filed for my renewal.

Can I travel abroad while my renewal process is going on? I will go out and get back into the US before my visa expires.

The renewal you are talking about - is it for I-129s/797? You can’t get a visa stamp without going out of the country and scheduling interview/stamping in a consular office.

I second F1. I was instructed not to travel when they were extending my L1 here.

I had to leave the US before my lease ended due to visa reasons and subleased the apartment. I will be returning to the US on L1A shortly after the sublease ends (but before the term of the lease expires), could that jeopardize my return on L1A?
