L1A and EB1C
Hi,
I am working in a senior IT role in the UK at the moment. However, I don't have any people directly reporting to me. I do assign work to our offshore team members (contractors). I have a potential opportunity to move into a managerial role in the US. Would I be eligible for L1A. My employer is likely to apply for GC one year after my relocation. Would I be eligible for GC in EB1C category after one year (Assuming that the employer is willing apply).
I am keen to pursue this opportunity only if L1A/EB1C is a feasible option for me at this point of time. Not very keen on pursuing it, if the only option is L1B/EB2. I have a couple of Masters and industry certifications. Any input is appreciated. Thanks a lot.

Re: L1A and EB1C
Not necessarily required for an L-1A visa. Research the phrase "functional manager".
Very likely, yes.
