If you don. t know the secret beyond TEAM WORK read the following. It is the clearance of Labor Certification in California. Rajiv and his team members filed on 10th May 2000 for my Labor Clearance under RIR category. It was cleared at EDD Sacramento on 23rd of May and sent to DOL, SanFrancisco for further approval. On 5th June I got a message from the GREAT TEAM and surprised to hear that the Labor Certification is done. . Excellent Job!!! Just in 25 days!!! Unbeleivable !!!. Probably it is stunning news for Rajiv too. I know the quality of the work, the efforts what they put and how systematic they are. Extremely professional!!! Moreover, they are easily accessible, including Rajiv. It is pleasure to me to mention the team members : Rajiv, Suman, Vijay, Richa and Priya. Probably there is no substitution for this team. So here is the secret: Go ahead and call 1 703 908 4800 immediately.
Kudos to Rajiv and his team in getting our greencard approved in 1 year 7 months. Here are my details: EB2 India. Priority date: October 98. Labor certification was done via RIR in 7 months, I-140 in 2 months from TSC, and I-485 in 7 months from TSC. We had our passports stamped last Friday, and are awaiting our greencard. I originally started off with another lawyer, but changed to Rajiv shortly afterwards. That had to be the best decision we made!!! Rajiv and his staff are extremely knowledgeable and informative. He took no chances at all, and left no stone unturned in making sure our applications were complete. Believe me, this is the lawyer you want on your side.
Rajiv Khanna and his team did a great job of guiding us through the RIR labor certification process. They were always there to answer questions and provide us with the right information at the right time. Easwar One Happy Client!
Rajiv, Thanks a lot! My wife and I just got our passports stamped for adjustment of status. We were surprised to see our I-485 approval notifications so quickly. It took about six months for our I-485 approval, in EB2, at Texas Service Center. Our priority date was 12/98. We would like to thank you, Diana, Suman, Amel and your other staff who handled our case, for a job well done. We will continue to refer our friends and relatives to your office for their immigration matters. thanks, Sachindra

Mr. Khanna is very focused, and gives very accurate information. He is very flexible and warm person. It was great experience working with him and his staff. I greatly appreciate it!!

What is ability to pay wages and how do employers prove to the USCIS that they have the ability?
At the I-140 stage, USCIS requires documentation that the employer can afford the employee's proffered wage and will be able to continue doing so in the foreseeable future. In this regard, employers must prove that: (1) the employer’s taxable income is equal to or greater than the proffered wage; or (2) the employer's net current assets are equal to or greater than the proffered wage; or (3) credible verifiable evidence that the employer is not only employing the beneficiary but also has paid, or is currently paying, the proffered wage.

Thank you Mr. Rajiv and his team for a prompt and supportive guidance on the whole H-1B Visa process. The team is knowlegeable, meticulous and helpful. They worked on the case keeping my interests in mind and at the same time going by the rules for a smooth visa processing. Mr Rajiv took out time to answer my questions and as well as Anna and Fran were very quick and responsive in any kind of communication that was needed from the start till the Visa was approved and also after that if I had any questions. I did not need to worry about anything during the process. I really appreciate the work they did, the support they gave and highly recommend their services for any kind of legal guidance needed.
