Hi ,

I have attended for the L1- Blanket Visa at US Consulate chennai and I was issued 221 g Blue form which indicates my case can't be processed further under section 8cfr214.2 (I )( ii) (D) and INA 101(a)(15)(L)
Can I Still attend /drop the required documents as indicated in 221 g.
It says your case requires Additional Administrative processing before a final decision is made.

In my I-129 I see VO has marked as NCA what does it mean.


Two months ago my B1 visa was rejected at the same consulate .Does this have any impression to the VO since I was tried after two months undert L category .I mean to say how are the chances of assuming me as potential Immigrant.

It would be great if anyone could be suggest me on it.

Thanks and awaiting for response.

Thanks,
Balaji

Which company was the L1 for? Was it an L1A or L1B ?

Was the B1 applied by you or through your company?

1 - What was the reason for B1 rejection
2 - Which consulate did you go to?

Okay, first have you worked for the same company for a full one year in the past three years?

What is your skill set or "specialized knowledge" as per the petition?

What the 8cfr214.2 (I )( ii) (D) and INA 101(a)(15)(L) refers is based on your answer to the above two questions.

go look it up here for your case " Electronic Code of Federal Regulations:"

It may also depends on the B1 rejection or any ascertained interests on part of the petitioner in your case which may have been deemed contradictory or some flags raised by the consulate/uscis on part of your company.

L1 burden of proof is usually more on the company than on the candidate. Don't know what NCA is. Talk to your company's legal office, afterall it is their petition.

Whether you are a potential immigrant or not, doesn't apply here.
