My interaction with Rajiv dates back to March 1999. I was in a very difficult situation, had to change employer in the first one month of my entry into US. I was not on the payroll, as a result I did not have paystubs. Rajiv helped with a 60 day rule, filed my H1 B petition within first 60 days of my entry in US, at an unbelievable pace. The best part, Rajiv’s unique insight and understanding of the law and applying to specific immigration situation., I am a US citizen and living the American dream as a first generation American of Indian origin. Last seven years I have been running a company. When I look back in time, the best thing I did was to seek the right professional help. For any immigration needs the only name that comes to my mind is the law offices of Rajiv, S Khanna. Ganesh Venkatraman

Hello All - Just want to let you know of my interview experience today. We were scheduled for a 9:00 AM interview at the Baltimore office, and having woken up bright and early, both my wife and I were in the waiting room by 8:10 AM. Fairly simple process to check in once you get in the building and find the room. It was early so there just a few people there waiting. Seemed like people were getting called in quickly and the environment was pretty light, stress-free. I was called in 30 minutes early and was ready to go.
I contacted the Law Offices of Mr. Rajiv S. Khanna for secondary advice in regards to my and my husband's green card process and filing of G-639. Via telephone conference I received helpful advice, more detailed information and clarification than I had received from my other lawyer. I found Mr. Khanna very knowledgeable. I wish I had come to Mr. Khanna's office at the start of my green card process. I strongly recommend his service. /EAB
