Interesting. A couple of years ago a company was going to move me to the states on an L1A (executive transfer); even though I was "only" the tech lead they seemed confident it would be fairly easy. Then again, they then proceeded to go bust in the GFC so what would they know.
Any hope of being transferred under that category instead?
The problem with L-1A is that you're expected to directly manage a significant amount of people. As far as I understand, it's harder to get, but it is extensible up to 7 years, compared to only 5 years for L-1B.
