Can I ask my employer to file L1 for me, if im currently on L2 and if my company has operations in my home country

Hello ,

I am currently on L2EAD. However, my spouse fears job loss so he is COS to H1B soon. This means that my status will become H4 and I have to leave my current job.

However, my current employer is very happy with me and they also have operations in India. Can i ask my current employer to let me go and then re-hire me in india and send me to US on L1.?How long does it take L1 visa to get approval?

Can I continue on L2EAD and ask them to file for L1 or should i goto h4 (leave my job) and then ask them to rehire me?

thanks
