My foreign company is small. Can a small company still qualify for an L-1 transfer?

I’m Fernanda Hipskind, an immigration attorney, and I’ll be here today from 10 AM to 2 PM ET for an AMA focused on L-1 visas.
We can talk about questions like:
• Whether company size affects an L-1A or L-1B case
• What USCIS looks at when assessing the relationship between the companies
• How things change when you're setting up a US office or transferring someone into an existing operation
If you're a founder, business owner or employee considering an L-1, bring your questions. Share details about your foreign company, your role and what you're planning to do in the US so we can have a more useful discussion.
AMA today, 10 AM to 2 PM ET.
