We were very apprehensive about the problems and delays in getting the required visas. Our consultation with another immigration attorney was not very reassuring. On s friend's recommendation we consulted Rajiv. And things changed. Rajiv and his staff got our work done in no time. That was only part of it. The thing that impressed us most was their highly professional approach, sense of duty, and client-always-comes-first attitude. Whenever we phoned and/or visited their office, both Rajiv and his staff, Charu in particular, made us feel at home and gave us patient hearing, their own very busy and tight time schedule notwithstanding. Thank you Rajiv. Thank you Charu.

Effect On Green Card And Naturalization Of Using Public Or Government Benefits
Question details
I & my wife are completing 5 years now on US Green Card, but are apprehensive to go ahead and file for our US Citizenship under the current circumstances. We also read that PR's who are using state or federal benefits are more susceptible to denials. I am making close to 200K salary and not dependent on any govt sponsored benefits or funds. But our kid has been diagnosed for Autism and he is receiving services from Department of Developmental Disabilities (DDD). The State alone is not paying for his services but we are primarily being billed on our private medical insurance for his therapy sessions every week. The school he is attending may be getting some funds for his additional care at school, considering his medical condition. Our questions are: Since we have been using DDD services for genuine medical reasons and I am in the higher salary bracket, would this be an issue for us in getting our Citizenship? Are the denials only for low income groups who are getting benefits from the government? Should we wait for some more time to apply for Citizenship?

I had a brief telephone conversation with Mr. Khanna. He had reviewed my credentials prior to the appointment, seemed to be very knowledgeable regarding the subject matter and provided me with several options and alternatives. I would recommend his expertise to everyone.
The process was done smoothly and professionally without any hitches. Thanks to Rajiv, Suman, Nimia, Dianne, Leila and the entire staff at 3440 N. Fairfax Drv for some quality work. Mr. Khanna is very knowlegable and is very easily accessible to answer all technical questions. Please keep up the good work.
