Many thanks to Prerna Mehta for all the help she provided with the filing of my I-140 and Sheena Gill for handling my I140 RFE in an excellent manner. My case was dealt with utmost trust and care by Rajiv's office and I didn't have to worry about RFE and USCIS approved my case in a couple of days.

My special thanks to Sheena as she handled the RFE extremely well.Sheena and Prerna were extremely professional.

I am sure that I made a wise decision in selecting Mr.Rajiv's office for my immigration matters.

Thank again Sheena and Prerna.

What to do if an I-140 gets rejected?

Question details

Have a situation. My company applied for Labor in oct 2007 which got approved and we filed I-140 (EB-2) in april 2008. We got a RFE in Sep 2008 and reply recieved by the USCIS on oct 16th 2008. Mean while my 7th year of H1b was approved and now it expires on Nov 2009. We have not received any updates on my case and its been >90 days. My current lawyer now says that I should apply for EB-2 NIW as a back up. My concerns are:

1. If my current I-140 gets rejected will my 7th year of H1b be revoked? since it was based on labor pending?
2. What will be my options if it gets denied( can I file for Motion to reconsider). Will I still be in Status and work till nov 2009?
3. Will they extend my H1b beyond nov 2009 if the MTR is not resolved by then?
4. If at all everything is rejected what can I do to start residency in july if I match?

If all else fails what are my options to continue working in the US?
My wife is on her independent H1B visa and I have 2 US citizen kids. I also have a US citizen brother( dont know if that would help any)

Generally speaking, NIW is a lousy back up for a number of reasons. But I say this not knowing the merits of your situation, as your lawyer does.

We have applied our I-140 and 485 petitions through Rajiv's law office. We received our GC approvals the other day.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank Mr.Rajiv Khanna and his team.

My Special thanks to Mathew Chacko, Prerna Mehta and Suman Bhasin for their help and attention with all of our GC related matters.

Since day1 we have received exceptional service. Their staff is easily approachable.

I would also like to thank Rajiv Khanna for the great service he provides for the immigrant community through his Live chats.

The attorney fees are reasonable for the valuable service they provide compared to other noted firms.

Looking forward to recommend your law firm to my friends and family.

Rajiv Khanna and associates are helping me in my Green Card processing since January 2004 and recently they did a very good job to get me the I-140 approval. I received an RFE on my I-140 in Feb 09 and response was well prepared by one of the Lawyers and sent within a weeks time. I got the approval on my I-140 just after a weeks time. It was a great job and effort from the Rajiv Khanna's office and their associates. I appreciate their good work and would recommend them to anyone who is looking for a good immigration lawyer for their Green Card or any other immigration related work.

Thanks to Sheena for all the help she provided with the filing of my I-140. Even with an RFE pertaining to my name, the approval came through very fast. Sheena guided me through the process extremely well. She was extremely professional through it all and invoked a lot of confidence.

Thanks to you Sheena! Have a great 2009.

Thanks to Mr.Rajiv Khanna, Ms.Sheena Gill and team.

I got I-140 denial on my education degree, but ajiv ji and Sheena both were very confident that we can win this case from the day i received denial notice .

Special Thanks to Sheena Gill, for all the hard work did in getting my education evaluation and Clarifying USCIS about the wrong reason on which they denied my I-140.

Rajiv Khanna and his team is very quick in responding to mail ,phone call and providing solutions.

I have been working with Rajeev Khanna's Laws office since the beginning of 2005 when i applied my labor. The whole team has been very helpful and very prompt in informing me about the latest status. I have had RFE on labor and 40 and both have been addressed promptly and all the documentation was done without much involvement from me. Even when we had a window to apply for my I -485 within a very short period of time. I personally thank Sheena, Tarun and the whole team for being very helpful. I hope i get my 485 approved soon. I would recommend the team to everyone who is looking for their immigration and other services. Thanks once again.
