L1 marrying a US citizen

 Share

Recommended Posts

If a person on L1 (currently in USA) marries a US citizen, how long before the person can quit her job? The reason I am asking is that the person on L1 and USC are in different cities. After the marriage, the person on L1 would like to quit her job and would like to move to the place where USC lives.

Any input is appreciated.

Thank you.

I would confirm this with someone else but I think you can just give your 2 week notice and quit.

Once you file for AOS you are in the same transition limbo status as a K visa holder.. The difference is that you have to prove that it was not your original intention to come here and marry a citizen as a part of the interview process.
