Hypothetical example: an employee living in Sainte-Anne-des-Plaines would spend the first months training on U.S. systems, then move into a different permanent role. Describing both roles separately keeps the record accurate from the start.
This site keeps six routes open: TN, L-1A, L-1B, E-2, EB-5 and Gold Card, which we name as a distinct program without stating its current availability. Requirements for each should be checked as they stand today. Six routes, and each one hinges on a small number of hard facts.
Choose what brings you here. Leave with a short list of things to discuss—not another long form to fill out.
Set out the duties for each phase of the assignment.

Write two job descriptions, not one: the training period and the role that follows. Note the date the duties change and who approves that change.

Personal support.
A practical plan.
No promises we can’t keep.
Describe the training duties, the supervising person and the expected end date, then describe the permanent duties in the same detail.
Compare what the written offer says with what the manager described verbally, and ask for one document that covers both phases.
List what nobody has confirmed yet: reporting lines, pay source during training, and whether the permanent role exists in writing.
Bring both descriptions and the open list to a qualified review, so the sequence of duties is assessed together rather than piecemeal.
Ask your employer to put the permanent duties in writing before travel is booked. A role described only in conversation is difficult to present accurately later.

It can affect how duties are described, which is why both phases belong in the same account. A licensed U.S. attorney assesses the legal effect once the written duties are available.
Say so plainly. An undefined role is a missing answer to record, and the person who can supply it works inside your company. Ask who owns that decision and by when.
Yes. Leaving out a phase of the assignment creates a record that does not match reality. Describe it accurately, with dates and supervision, and let the review decide how it matters.
Ask whether a company contact can join. Employment facts such as reporting lines, pay source and the permanent job description may sit with the employer, and a direct answer saves a second round.
