I currently work based on an H-4 EAD for a U.S. company that has an affiliate in India. Could I work from the U.S. for the Indian entity for one year and then qualify for an EB1(c) green card?

Answer

In order to qualify as a multinational manager / executive under the EB1(c) category, the foreign national generally must work for the foreign entity while physically outside the United States for at least one year. (25.Jun.2025)
