L1 guys definitely have work rights in US than any other and more salary.

As such, they are expected to be given a minimum allowance to meet their needs while in US and at the same time given a salary in the base country. So, he may not necessarily get more salary. From my interactions, they get far less. The only relief is that the base salary gets deposited in their country which of course is a direct savings.

There's no requirement or expectation that L1 holders be paid in their own country (that may be how Indian firms do it) and even if they did those earnings would be subject to US taxation.

I am not sure about the taxation part. Maybe for citizens of Canada and Mexico, rules may be in place to avoid double taxation as they are part of NAFTA. But for an Indian citizen, his salary in Indian currency is subject to Indian tax and if he gets taxed again by US, it will be a whammy. But again, I do not know if any bilateral agreements are in place between India and US.

It's not a NAFTA or a tax treaty question - if you meet Substantial Presence Test (>183 days in the US) you become a US tax resident and your entire income is subject to US taxation, no matter what your home country does.

Hi,
For L1 blanket visa's i guess the papers are not sent to USA. The company gives the visa and directly book the appointment for stamping. During visa interview in the embasy they will ask lot of questions and it purely depends upon the person who is interviewing to give the visa.
Once the person clears the interview he gets the visa. I am not saying its is very easy but it is fast as compared to other visa types.
Please correct me if i am wrong.
