Yes, I realize the requirement is spread over 3 yrs, but do you necessarily have to be outside the US for 1 yr during that period? Can your own company sponsor your L1?
1) No, provided that you are in legal status all this time.

She may have problems convincing them that she didn't plan it in advance if she quit her job before going to the US. If she's lucky they'll let her adjust status, if not she m...
