Quotes and Excerpts from Rajiv in the article:
“We are seeing a significant spike in RFEs and Notices of Intent to Deny on B-1/B-2 change-of-status applications filed by laid-off H-1B workers,” said Rajiv Khanna, an immigration attorney based in the US.
Responding to the scale of impact, Khanna said: “The volume we are handling today, unscientifically but clearly, running at roughly 10 times what I would have considered normal at any prior point in my career.”
