I would like to take this opportunity to express my sincerest appreciation for the great job done by this law firm in getting my LC approved in record time. My LC was filed at the Florida SESA on August 2nd, 2000 and approved from Atlanta DOL on 18th September. The entire process took only 1.5 months, which is incredible considering that Labor is taking around 4-5 months in that region. This has been made possible mainly due to the expertise and professionalism of the staff of this law firm, particularly Rajiv Khanna, Suman Bhasin, Richa Narang and Vijay Durgav (among others). I am grateful to them for a job well done and will recommend their services to anybody about to start the journey. On to I-140!!!!!
We won this case following a response to a Request for Evidence. Service requested further clarification on the "permanency" of the job offer, which was with a University. We submitted the HR policies/procedures documentation to show that the position was permanent and met the Service requirements. Letters from the HR as well as the Department were submitted to show that the position would continue and that funding was available to support this position.
I have received excellent service from attorney Mr. Rajiv S. Khanna and his entire talented team. I got an audit request on my case after two weeks of PERM filing at DOL. Mr. Khanna and his dedicated team, attorney Sheena, Amrita and Kim everyone worked relentlessly in response to the audit request. Finally my Permanent Labor got certified within one week of their response. I would like to thank attorney Mr. Khanna, attorney Sheena, Kimberly Phill and Amrita for their generous support on the success of my case. I will definitely recommend everyone to consult attorney Mr. Khanna and his well-experienced team for any immigration matter.
I recently received a GC for me and my wife filed in the employment based EB2 category. The office of Rajiv S Khanna was extremely professional and responsive and the process went really smooth. Prerna Mehta was the contact person and she was always available to answer queries and doubts. Received a RFE at the I-485 stage which was handled in a timely manner with all relevent documents by the law firm. I highly recommend this law firm for all kinds of Employment visa, Permanent Residence cases.
I am exteremly impressed by Rajiv Khanna law firm and my case manager Amrita.I got audited on my PERM labor clearance. With Mr.Khanna and his team, I got my LC approved on 1/7/08. A big thanks to the entire team and special kudos to my case manager Amrita. She was very prompt and readily availabe whenever I had any questions. I would highly recommend Rajiv Khanna law associates for green card filing. My sincere thanks to Attorney Sheena too.

Bhavna

On Oct. 1, 2012, USCIS will begin accepting the Form I-129, Petition for Nonimmigrant Worker, filed on behalf of Canadian citizens who are outside the United States and seeking classification as a TN nonimmigrant.
With respect to the TN classification, USCIS currently only accepts Form I-129 in connection with a request to extend a TN nonimmigrant’s stay or to change a nonimmigrant’s status to TN.
I got my Immigrant Visa thru Consular Processing on August 2000. Law Offices of Rajiv Khanna helped me through the process. His staff were generally helpful and knowledgeable. Among other things one I most appreciated was the fact Rajiv made time to reply every e-mail queries I sent and return every phone messages I left. That was re-assuring during various stages of the process. I will certainly refer them to anyone who wants immigration/non-immigration services.
