Spousal Work Authorization for L and E visa holders
The Senate recently passed legislation which would extend work authorization
to the spouses of L and E visa holders. The legislation also reduces the
amount of time an individual has to have worked for a related foreign entity
in order to qualify for L status from one year to six months. The legislation
had been passed earlier by the House and is expected to be signed by the
President after the New Year.
