After getting the green card, can I get a re entry permit for two years more than one times for my self and my family, if I am working out of US for United Nations.
Where there is a good enough reason, reentry permits may be granted more than once.
My husband and myself need to bring my mother in-law to the USA from Mexico, she is in need of constant elderly care how can we do this I am a US citizen and my husband is a permanent resident.
I can think of only a tourist visa or ER. But once your husband becomes a US citizen, he can get her green card.
On H1B, born in India, EB2 I-140 approved but cannot apply for I-485 since PD is Nov 2008. Is cross-chargeability applicable in this case, if I marry GF who was born in country other than India/China?
Is it OK if the GF is not here right now or on other visa category than H1B? Will marrying enable both of us to file for I-485 immediately?
Cross changeability is possible if your spouse was born in a country other than your country of birth. She can file her I-485 only if she is in USA.
I have a question .. I am a US citizen .. my husband is in the navy i want to bring my mom to the states but i dont work cause we have a 2 year old baby . Can my husband be my mom's sponsor? or what should we do ?
You can apply for her and he can be a joint sponsor on the affidavit of support. No problem.
Under normal circumstances, a child immigrating to the United States from Haiti as the adopted orphan child of a U.S. citizen is adopted before leaving Haiti, and is then admitted to the United States with an immigrant visa for Lawful Permanent Residence (LPR) status. The adopted child then acquires citizenship upon entry as specified in section 320 of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA).
U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) announced that it has posted a revised Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status, Form I-485. In addition to a revised form, there are new filing locations. The changes are part of an overall effort to transition the intake of USCIS benefit forms from Service Centers to Lockbox facilities. Centralizing form and fee intake allows USCIS to provide the public more efficient and effective initial processing of applications and fees.
U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) announced the availability of two different grants designed to help prepare lawful permanent residents (LPRs) for citizenship and advance integration in the United States. This year’s program will make nearly $7 million available for citizenship education in communities across the country.
I came to US in 2004, overstayed my J1 visa by 3 years and got married to a greencard holder in 2007. My I-130 was approved in 2008 . Is it possible to adjust status when my visa number becomes available. I have read on different sites that I'm not eligible since I have not maintained lawful status during my stay. Are there any loops?
Unless your spouse becomes a US citizen, nothing can be done as far as I can see. If you had a 2 years HRR, you have bigger problems.
I have 3 questions about the L1B visa I hope you can help me with:
1.Is it possible to work part time for another company than your sponsor under an L1B visa? (at the same time)
2.Is there a minimum amount of hours you have to be employed weekly under an L1B? Or can you just work part time for your sponsor company?
3.Lets say I want to apply under the "dual intent" law to permanent residence with an L1B visa, is it possible to do so by working only part time to my sponsor or do I have to be full time employed to be able to apply under the dual intent law ?
1. L-1B visas do not permit part time employment.
2. I think 35 hours each week (full time). Part time is not permitted.
3. Part time is not allowed under L-1B.

I applied for GC through 245i. I currently have a valid EAD. I140 approved. and I485 pending. Its for future employment. Can I work for a non related (not related to my labour) until my 485 is approved?
Theoretically, there is nothing wrong with that, but speak with your lawyers. In my view, not working for the future employer raises issues like is there a job, do you really want to work for this employer, etc.
I am very pleased with the help I have received from Mr.Rajiv Khanna about the visa problems I faced. He was always concise and methodical in his approach and answered all my queries.
My 140 got approved in 9 days ,great work from Rita and attorneys at Law offices of Rajiv .
The long wait still continues to file 485 .
I wish each and every one a very happy new year 2007 .
My previous employer didn't file for my wife H4 when they filed for my H1B, which made her out of status from Sep 2002. I got to know that Rajiv's office did help the clients with H4 issues. That is when I decided to try with them. We filed for my H1B (7th yr extension) and my wife H4 at the same time in Oct 05. We requested to give the status from Sep 02 - Jan 07. USCIS approved both H1B and H4. But they gave her status from Jan 06 - Jan 07, which means she was still out of status from Sep 02 - Jan 06. Then we decided to file for MTR and we filed MTR in Nov 05. USCIS responded to MTR in Sep 06 with RFE. We sent response to RFE and they gave status from Sep 02 - Jan 06, which means my wife got full status.
All this couldn't have happened with out strategic thought process Rajiv/Jitesh and their team has put together. We are extremely happy about how our case has been handled from day one we chose to hire Rajiv's law firm. My special thanks to Rajiv/Jitesh/Ursula/Anna and their team for answering all my questions at different stages of this. In future if I need any immigration help I would definitely go for Rajiv firm. If anybody has any help needed about immigration I would highly recommend Rajiv firm.
I want to thank you everyone with Rajiv Khanna. They are awesome people to work with. Timely response and great work.
My PERM application got certified in 3 days after application.
I specially want to thanks pramita and Anna for their kind support.
Rgds,

I got my 485 approved after filing WOM. Rajiv Khanna's office was very helpful, and their guidance in the whole case was always truthful and honest. Rajiv and Jitesh advised me in this case and filed WOM in DC Circuit Court.All filings related to this case were done on time, the arguments in the case were solid, and name check was cleared within a month of filing WOM.
We applied in late September; and my case for permanent resident status was approved last week. Mathew Chacko and Heather Crumb took care of all the paperwork and the process and were both extremely helpful, prompt and did a wonderful job. Couldnt have asked for a better service!
I have worked with numerous immigration lawyers in the past and no body (and I mean no body) gave the quick turn around time that I received from these guys. (Specifically Seema & Amrita). I was on my 7th year of H1-B so it was very important to get my application out on time. Seema and Amrita were very helpfull and their turn around time was amazing. They knew exactly what they needed to get done.
Whenever I had any query regarding my case, I was getting a lightening reply from Amrita. Thanks to the great work by Amrita. Amrita was always eager to help and is very pleasant Thanks a lot Amrita.
Thanks to Mr Khanna, Mathew & Kumuda for all the work on my case , it was handled very professionaly & and response time from them was very fast on every matter.
I want to thank Attorney Khanna and Attorney Sheena for outstanding service to resolve a complicated case with multiple filings involving more than one law firms. Attorney Sheena was extremely dedicated, absolutely quick in her responses and worked through the snow storm to get our issues resolved. It is always great to have an attorney who looks out for you and is approachable. I would definitely recommend them to anyone in the future who require immigration assistance. Regards. Dr. RP
