Hello!

I have been working for a US company for the past 5+ years or so.

I live and work in Canada, yet I report to the LA office. The parent company, however, is located in France...

It would make things a lot easier for my job if I was performing it within the USA, and the company has expressed an interest.

I don't have a bachelor's degree, so it looks like my best bet is an L1 Visa. I should be able to fit the specialized knowledge requirement without any trouble.

But even though I'm not in France does anyone know if I could theoretically qualify for an L-1 intra-company transferee visa if the company is interested in moving me to the US?

Thanks for your time!
