Rajiv and his team are simply awesome. Rajiv knows the subject matter and is very thorough with all the rules and regulations. I was impressed with the humility, simplicity and honesty.
I was assisted by DIane Lombardo a colleague and team member of Rajiv, who was diligent, detailed, prompt and persistent. Diane is highly focussed, paid attention to minute details and analytical. Diane always responded to calls and emails within 2 hours, and referred the matter to Rajiv, whenever required for specialist advice. A great team indeed. Anna Baker also was involved in the coordination and I did see that Anna made extra efforts to ensure all documentations are perfect.
I highly recommend Rajiv and team for all immigration related work.
Rajiv and Diane helped our family with our permanent residency application. We had an excellent experience with them. They returned our calls and emails promptly, gave us honest and frank advice. This application is a long process and it's been very helpful to have good folks during this stressful time.
Mr. Rajiv Khanna and Ms. Rena Waddell were very professional and fast in there services. I would highly recommend them to any one for any of there services. Keep up the good and fast work.

WE HAVE BEEN WORKING WITH THIS FIRM SINCE LONG TIME. THEY ARE EXPERTS IN IMMIGRATION RELATED.
WOULD RECOMMEND ALL
Our organization has worked with Mr. Khanna for almost 10 years, and retained their services for our immigration needs related to H1 and Green Card filings. Mr. Khanna’s advice has helped us as well as our employees in the most critical immigration related issues. I have worked very closely with Anna Baker, Rena Waddell and Vijay Durgam. I would say that Mr. Khanna has an excellent team in place, extremely approachable, efficient, having an eye for detail, helpful and professional. Inspite of the large volume of cases handled by their office; they manage to review minute details of each case, bring forth concerns if any in a timely manner, along with solutions to handle the concerns. We have secured a 100% success rate in all our filings till date through their office. Reason – efficient and trained staff, and above all Mr. Khanna who has always made himself available for any guidance which may be required. The community conference calls hosted by Mr. Khanna have been highly appreciated by employers as well as employees. This is a free service to the community and is commendable. Mr. Khanna has always provided the right guidance, at the same time keeps his clients updated with latest regulations / amendments. We look forward to work with him for many more years to come. Would highly recommend Mr. Khanna’s office for any immigration related matters and guidance. Good Luck to you and your team Mr. Khanna; keep up the good work! Appreciate it!
It was a delightful experience working with Rajiv Khanna Law offices. They are very accurate and prompt responding.
The whole team at Mr. Khanna's firm is extremely professional and experienced. I recently changed jobs and my new company had no experience working on H1 transfers. Mr. Khanna and his team were extremely patient with us in guiding us through the process and making sure every detail is captured and accurate. They really care about the employee and I believe that is what sets them apart.
Rajiv is very responsible,humble and loving person.His staff is reflection of his personality. He is Knowledgeable and most honest attorney. Rajiv is phenomenal and it is treat to consult with him.God bless his family and team Krishan

Question: Can I change my profession after getting a Green Card? I received my GC in EB2 as an Accountant. Now, I see the salaries in the software/IT sector to be much higher.
Answer: Sure, you can change your profession as long as you did not have a pre-conceived intention to do so before you got your green card. I cannot say that there is any particular time frame attached to it.

Hi, My husband is in USA working under H1B (his visa got expired last year) and I am a Canadian citizen living in Canada. We are Married for 18 years and we have 1son born in USA. We both applied for visa together (h1b for my husband and H4 for me) in Canada. We got visa interview date too but my husband’s company recently filed green card process for him. So, I believe he cannot travel to Canada if green card is under process. Can I go for visa interview by myself even if he is the main applicant and cannot attend visa interview?
Canadian citizens do not need a visa. Presentation of the H-1B approval and proof of relationship at the port of entry with proof of maintenance of H-1B status should be sufficient to gain H-4 status. See this entry also: https://www.immigration.com/faq/h-4-canadian-citizen I am unable to understand the rest of the situation. You are welcome to post a message for our next community conference call. We have one almost every other Thursday.

Hello Sir, I was on CPT for a year and a half before my H1b visa was approved last year. After that, I took a break from my studies. Now, I want to visit India, do I need to resume my degree? I'm planning to drop it as it is too expensive. Will there be any issue in stamping as it would be my first H1b stamp. Thanks
From a purely legal perspective, there is no law that requires you to continue with your degree if you have received your H1B approval. However, I am concerned about appearances also. Ideally, people should take up a new educational program only if they are serious about it and that program furthers their career. If you quit, you should have a good, truthful explanation for why you started that degree and why you quit. You may never be called upon to explain yourself, but the USCIS and the consulates could potentially ask about any relevant matter when you appear for an interview.

Hi, My question is can I stay unemployed on EAD for long period of time (working for the same employer who petitioned me but on bench without payroll)? Can I be like that until my 485 gets adjudicated?. or do I need to show paystubs for each and every month?
Technically, you can be unemployed while on EAD/AOS/I-485. But if you are benched by the employer who petitioned for your green card, that casts doubt on the availability of the green card job. That can lead to revocation of the green card process unless you change employers using AC21 portability.
