Re-entry Permit Reapplication and Reentry to the U.S. – Guidance Requested
My re-entry permit application that was denied because I was not physically present in the United States at the time of filing in May 2025. I previously returned to the U.S. in June 2024 for biometrics, and it has now been over one year and two months since I last departed. I would appreciate your advice on the following: 1. Do I need to take any action before returning to the U.S. to prepare for reentry? 2. If not, is there a risk of being denied entry or facing issues with CBP upon arrival? 3. Once in the U.S., am I required to be physically present at the time of filing a new re-entry permit application? 4. After submitting the application and completing biometrics, how long must I remain in the U.S. before departing again?

Is there a minimum revenue or operational threshold required for the offshore entity to qualify for L1 sponsorship?
We are a U.S.-based technology company looking to establish an offshore entity in India to support our product development efforts. Our goal is to ensure that this entity meets the requirements for transferring team members to the U.S. under the L-1 visa program within a two-year timeline. Specifically, we need clarification on the following points: 1. Is there a minimum revenue or operational threshold required for the offshore entity to qualify for L-1 sponsorship? 2. Does the offshore entity need to be a formal subsidiary, or would another type of affiliated company suffice? 3. If we plan to apply for a blanket L-1 to facilitate multiple transfers, would the same company setup be adequate?
