Quotes and Excerpts from Rajiv in the article:
“We have seen a very positive trend in the moderation in unnecessary hurdles. We see this trend all through legal immigration, not just H-1B visas. It’s not that we are not getting requests for evidence, it is that they are a lot more reasonable,” said Rajiv S Khanna, managing partner at immigration.com.
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) announced an extension of the flexibility in complying with requirements related to Form I-9, Employment Eligibility Verification, due to COVID-19.
1) Please list out what are the documents need to be carried for final interview by main applicant and the dependents?

My son turns 21 years in August, and as per the August Visa Bulletin my EB3 Downgrade petition is current. Does this means my sons is covered under the CSPA and eligible for EAD renewals?
There are two dates based upon which green card applications move one date is the date for filing and the other date is the final action dates. Your CSPA protection is covered by the final action dates; the visa bulletin dates when they become current.

1) Most attorneys don't recommend to abandon H1B status while AOS is pending.
What are the chances of AOS denial for someone who has had a clean history and is a law abiding alien living in the US waiting for AOS?
2) What are your thoughts about the timing of filing I-485 J? Upon job change, should it be filed proactively or wait for RFE Won't it delay the AOS adjudication if it's not filed proactively?

WASHINGTON—The U.S. Department of Homeland Security is seeking data and information from the public that DHS intends to use to develop a public charge regulatory proposal. The purpose of public comment is to ensure that the proposal is fair, consistent with law, and informed by relevant data and evidence. Public comment also will help DHS ensure that the proposed regulation does not impose undue burdens on noncitizens seeking admission to or adjustment of status in the United States.
It was great working with Rajiv, Anna, and Aneet. They addressed all my queries. We went through all the processes, and every week we were updated about the progress and followed a path. The team is not money-minded, so ensured that everything is submitted in a detailed manner. They explain everything why it is done, so you understand it before putting in the effort and money.
5 stars for promptness, availability, quick response, attention to detail, knowledge, and experience.
