Q: Is EB1C tough to get directly? Or is it best to get L1A and then move to EB1A?

I belong to an Indian company working from last one year. We have offices in US. I am planning to go ahead for work purposes. Just wanted to know if the level of scrutiny for EB1C is too tough? I heard the denial rate is high for EB1C? What do you suggest? EB1C or L1A to EB1C? In total i have 3 years of work experience. One year in executive level.

A: We always advise our clients to come to the US on an L-1A visa, and then to apply for a green card as a Multinational Executive or Manager.
