Urgent!!! My L1 visa got approved today. However, my work authorization will end on Friday and I cannot comtinue until my firm receives the physical approval notice.

I am asked to temporarily resign and rejoin back once the firm receives the physical copy. Is it possible to temporarily resign and rejoin back in L1 visa.

Can you not submit an LOA instead? Resignation, even though temporary, seems too drastic.

Yes, my husband did LOA in similar situation. His EAD expired. He ended up using it for 2 months, yours will be sooooo much shorter.

I thought recently a rule was passed of automatic renewal for 180 days for L2 also.

like

The auto-renewal (originally 180 days which got extended to 540 days) was for EAD.

Did your visa not come is I 129S? And there are repercussions of resigning on L1. If you resign, you would have to leave the country and work for the same firm before being eligible for an L visa again.

Here is what I would suggest:
- Check if your I 129S got approved along with your visa
- Am assuming you got approved by USCIS while you are still in the USA. If you got approved by consular processing, things might be different
- Do not resign on L1. Any firm can nit hire on L1 but they can do a transfer.

Chase Sapphire Preferred vs Amex Green Card ??
SO has chase card so was thinking to add onto her membership but was wondering if I could get the 60000 points while I am added or I need to get new card ??

On the other hand was thinking Amex since our corporate card is Amex and I already have membership rewards to Amex.

Both have equally good benefits for mid travel benefits
And also I believe Amex will have less annual fee since we have Corporate card. right ?
