What evidence supports a Callander L-1B placement at a third-party plant?

Beyond the usual corporate and employment records, the file needs the contract or statement of work, a written description of supervision arrangements, and material showing the method is the petitioner's own. The purpose is to demonstrate that the affiliate controls her work and that the assignment is not labour supplied to the client.

Two files, and the second one is often missing

Hypothetical example: Yusra would spend eighteen months at a municipal client's plant for her Callander employer's American affiliate. The first file is standard: incorporation and ownership documents linking the two entities, evidence that both are doing business, payroll and duty records covering the qualifying year abroad, and the offered position's description. The second file exists only because the work happens on a client site.

It should contain the service agreement or statement of work, showing the affiliate is engaged to deliver a defined result; an organizational statement identifying who supervises Yusra, who sets her tasks and who conducts her review; and the internal documentation of the method itself, including manuals, version history and training records. Where the client's staff will be trained by her, the training plan is useful evidence that she is transferring the petitioner's knowledge rather than filling a vacancy. Anything drafted as hourly staffing should be renegotiated before filing, not explained afterwards.

Anything originally drafted in French for a Canadian client needs a complete certified translation before it can serve as evidence in an American filing.
