hi attorneys,

i am currently on H-1B with employer A. i hv a job offer from employer B which is a mgr role based outside USA.

i know that if i work for 1+ yr with employer B outside USA then i can come back to USA on L1-A visa.

my question is - during this 1 yr period, can i work for employer B in USA on H-1B?

thx in advance,

I think answer is NO if you want to come back of L1A from B employer.
To be eligible for L1A, You need to be on outside USA payroll from B employer for atleast 1 year (from past 3 years).
With H1B, you will be on USA's payroll for that period.
