l1签证配偶可以工作吗？
L1签证的配偶可以在美国合法工作，而且还可以直接申请H1B工作签证。 但是需要注意的是，在L1签证办理的过程中，配偶是不需要提交任何材料的，所以美国移民局对L1签证持有者身份的认定是只到L1签证持有人本人的，没有涉及到L1签证持有人的家属。因此美国移民局并不会因为L1签证持有人和其家属的存在而改变对该申请者是否满足条件的判断。换言之，如果L1签证申请人不符合申请条件的话，那么其配偶也不具备合法的移民资格，同样也不会获得绿卡。 所以L1签证的申请人在申请的时候，建议只申请自己一个人，这样获批的概率会更大一些；等自己拿到签证之后，再让配偶以个人身份以旅游的方式入境美国，然后再在美国境内申请移民，这样成功的概率就很大了！ L-1 visa is an employment based nonimmigrant visa that can be issued to either a foreign national employee of the organization who will be coming temporarily to work in the U.S， or their executive/managerial level employees who are currently operating abroad and would like to transfer to one of its offices located permanently in the United States.

Also， if more than half his/her work duties were management related（not just administrative）they qualify automatically. If less then half but still sufficient amounts of his work was managerial in nature ， it is up to USCIS to decide whether he qualifies through a lengthy adjudication process. In order to qualify， employers should show that transferred employees have “special skills”， i.e. that they possess specialized knowledge regarding how a company operates internationally rather than locally. Additionally， companies need to prove that there is no permanent place in North America where such expertise could be obtained; therefore making it essential to continue transferring workers between countries after the initial phase of expansion has begun.
