Everybody,
Thanks for all the info. I am still debating (and talking to my boss) about how I should proceed (I am tossed up between the L-1B and just applying for a TN).
Both seem to have good sides and bad sides.
1 thing I did notice with the L-1 is the need to file the I-129. Under the L-1B section Question F is as follows:
"Will the beneficiary be stationed primarily offsite (at the worksite of an employer other than the petitioner or its affiliate, subsidiary, or parent)?"
No, I would not. I would be working remotely. Just about everything is done over the internet.
followed by the need to explain how my work would be supervised.
Technically I would be supervised by a Canadian Manager, but I also work with a head of product development who works out of the US.
followed by the need to explain why it would be beneficial to the company to have me working remotely
There is no benefit to the company. Just a benefit to me personally
Would this cause a problem?
Thabks so much for the advice.
