L1 Individual to new L1 Blanket

[ashy15]

I am currently in the US on L1 Individual visa - my current visa is expiring on the 28st of Feb. My employer filed for a fresh L1 Blanket Visa instead of doing an extension because I had RFE's on i94 extn. My visa interview is on the 23rd of Feb in Canada.

Am I going to have any problems because I did not extend my visa and applied for a fresh one instead?

Any delay due to PIMS? Do I need to check whether my petition number is in PIMS system?

Any information provided is greatly appreciated.

Thanks....Ashy

Hello ashy15,

I'm in the same situation as you...Mine L1 individual visa will expire by this Sept 2009 and am applying for fresh L1 blanket from my company. Did you get your new L1 blanket visa without any problems? Please reply as it would be of great help to me.

Thanks
Guru
