Increased denials of L-1 visas when attempting to transfer personnel into the United States from India on L-1 visas is having a negative impact on growth, projects and product development in the United States, according to companies.
That is because at the same time L-1 visas declined in India, the number of L-1 visas issued went up by 15 percent at U.S. posts in the rest of the world.
The State Department has suggested that since the U.S. issues a lot of visas in general in India and Indians receives a large percentage of the L-1 visas issued each year that means there is nothing wrong with the L-1 visa approval process at U.S. posts in India.
