I have got my H1-b visa transferred twice in tough situations through successful representation of my cases by Rajiv S Khanna Law Offices. They have a highly professional, experienced and knowledgable staff. Best thing about RSK is that they have the most current information about immigration laws and the personalized attention (irrespective of whether you are a big corporation or an individual). In my experience they quickly grasped the problem, finished the paperwork swiftly and presented it in a very favourable way, that too for a very nominal fee (yes, fraction of what others charge!). What amazed me was the paralegals working at RSK are very involved and intelligent, they made a very important suggestion (which I overlooked) and saved me money and trouble. Mr. Rajiv Khanna himself is great man, possesses the best expertise in this field at the same time very modest and helpful. Special thanks to Charu Bhagat and Rena Waddel for handling my case. RSK Offices are doing a great service by providing latest information through this site. I have nothing but praise for everyone working there. Nobody has a magic wand, but if you have a immigration case/problem then I suggest you should leave it to RSK Offices.
These comments are being independent of the outcome of my application which is presently under process.What definately needs mention is the kind of professionalism shown by Law Offices of Rajiv Khanna (with specific mention to Rena Waddell and Sirisha Durgam. Their handling of my case papers, taking sincere interest in the case and not just providing lip service, providing me the correct information promptly, and keeping me upto date with the status has been extremely praiseworthy.
I got my passport stamped for permanent residency a few days ago. It is very difficult to express my sincere gratitude to Mr. Rajiv Khanna and his team. They are very professional, efficient and very cooperative and extremely patient. I started my GC process on Aug, 2000 and it ended successfully on Aug, 2002. The entire process was handled very smoothly. One thing about Rajiv is he is approachable and treat you like a friend. That is a rare virtue among the lawyers. Also he returns any phone call and e-mail promptly [all my e-mail and phone was returned in less than 24 hours]. And his knowledge base in immigration realted stuff is amazingly deep, precise and up to date. My heartiest thanks to Rajiv. I also like to express my gratitude and thanks to Rajiv's team, specially Suman, Pooja, Homa, Shivani, Leila and of course Diane. Each of them are extremely efficient and knowledgable in their area. And they are as prompt and patient as Rajiv. I already refered Rajiv's law farm to many of my friends. Two of them are already a client. If you have any immigration needs, please contact the LEGEND, I know I will in future.Godspeed Rajiv and his team.
The service provided by the Attorney's office of Rajiv Khanna was most professional. My case was a bit complicated but the advice provided by the office helped me save a trip to India. Many thanks to Charu, Sirisha and Ursula!!!
Gentlemen/Ladies,It has been a pleasure to work with Mr. Khanna and his colleagues during process of my permanent residency. The task had been executed flawlessly and I am glad and thankful, that my colleague J. Murugavel (Chairman SysIndia.com)who recommended Mr. Khanna's office to proceed with my green card. I appreciate all the assistance and comfort extended during this process, especially during the company acquisition during Jan 2002. I especially thank the team member who worked with me for consistently being extremely prompt with his answers to my questions, and the willingness to go the extra mile to help me. Either me or my wife, will not hesitate to recommend Mr. Khanna's office to our friends or strangers for any sort of legal help they are looking for. I have lots of my colleagues from India and Sri Lanka, and the message had been already spread. Wishing you and your team a very bright future. Keep up the good work.Thanking you allRegards
Iam thankful for the excellent work done by Mr.Rajiv Khanna and his colleagues Ms.Amel Berhe and Ms.Nimia Aranibar which enabled me to obtain the G.C. Keep up the good work guys.
I got my passport stamped last week to complete the GC processing. I am thankful to Mr. Khanna and his cooperative team for all the effort they put in for my case. I am impressed by the attention to the case provided by the entire team and also the backup measures that were taken to ensure speedy success. Overall it was a very pleasent experience. I had chosen Mr. Khanna over my company's lawyer and I feel it was a wise decision. My Labor Certification papers were filed in May 99 and the Center was VSC.
I got my GC approval on July 11 after a Interview at LOCAL INS Baltimore. Thanks to Rajiv and his team. I do not want to mention any of the staff members name as all the staff was prompt (Very important to me) and were extremely helpful. I really appreciate them answering all my questions patiently throughout the case. Like most of Desis, I was also asking same questions again and again in different ways but his staff were always patiently answer all my questions politely. I always got replies to all my (Phone/Email/Fax) inquiry within 24 hours. Rajiv also gave me his Cell Phone number on the day I was going for Interview which gave me feeling that he is with me for the Interview.
Hi, I got my GC approval on June 20th (filed mid Aug 99 at TSC). Kudos to Rajiv and his team, esp. Diane who handled my case. Both Rajiv and Diane were extremely helpful. I really appreciate them answering all my questions patiently throughout the case. Esp. email exchanges with both of them works great. I got replies to all my emails within 24 hours. At one point (March/April) after filing I-485, I was thinking about doing counsular processing. Rajiv asked Fidelina to check on status and suggested that we wait for a few more months. We did that and got GC. Bottomline, everyone at Rajiv's office has been very helpful. I recommend his office anytime. Thanks Deepak

WASHINGTON— On Feb. 21, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) began receiving H-2B cap-subject petitions for the second half of fiscal year 2018.
Hello,
Last Friday I went to the Oath ceremony. It was really nicely done.
Below is my dads background .<br>
Mom has always been a house wife & have lived in India most of her life except for 2 years in 1989 to 1991.
My dad has been working in the Yemen for a subsidiary of American company called Clorex for 10 years as a plant manager for a chemical plant(purely management job). Did an MBA 2 years prior to his retirement at the age of 56 since the company sponsored it as part of employee benefit.Since then he had been living as a retiree , now for 4 years. In between I have took them to Singapore & Malaysia .Have a permanent residence in India .He pays luxury tax for that home. Has a daughter(married and settled in a different town) and a son other than me(works and lives with them in their house) ( I work in the USA on an H1 for past 2 years).Have travel history to Saudi Arabia but not in the past 5 years.
I completely understand its the burden of applicant to prove the non immigrant Intent. But doesn't know how since both the times the officer didn't ask much .Both the times it was a joint interview .Wanted to know your comments.
Tourist visas are often denied based upon incomprehensible reasons. The most difficult reason to overcome is the 214B denial. Essentially, the consular officer says that your parents possess immigrant intent and that he is not convinced they will come back. You can ask for a supervisory review of that decision, but most of the times they don't work.

I'm on H1B visa for very long time working for Company A. I have founded a start-up company B while in H1B, and invested in it to launch 4 free Apps in the market. My spouse is having H4 EAD, and I hired her as Director to oversee the business, bank account etc. These Apps are very innovative and globally received lot of recognition. Now I have plenty of Media reports based on my Apps. I also wrote Innovative Articles that are accepted by Science and Engineering Journals about these inventions. I have 4+ qualifying criterias for EB1-A. So far I can confirm that I never made a $ out of these Apps or from my investment.<br>
Am I eligible for EB1-A, as I would like to make more more innovative and problem solving Apps, that would create jobs in the market.
EB-1A category requires a two-step analysis: quantitative and qualitative. In the quantitative analysis you must meet 3/10 requirements, or equipment. In the qualitative analysis, which is performed after that, your resume, in an overview, should look like that of a person who is one of the top people in your profession.

I would like to apply for green card for my mother and father. am a US citizen, they will be coming to US in next month on tourist visa. How long will I have to wait (day/months) after they land in US, before I can file for their green card.? Also, if law changes for so called "chain migration", can that law be retroactive for applications in the que? Any comments on that would be appreciated.
Your parents must not have a preconceived intention to file for a green card. I have covered this issue in a bunch of our frequently asked questions. Please take a look. In the USA, ex post facto laws are considered to be unconstitutional.
