I was greatly pleased with the level of professionalism, courtesy and promptness of Rajiv Khanna and his staff with regard to the dealings of my green card case. Rajiv Khanna's advise was invaluable in my case and I was able to obtain my GC in 14 months through CP at chennai. His staff made the whole experience very easy, simple and painless. I would greatly recommend him and have done so to several of my friends. Please feel free to contact me if any questions. Regards Tg
Rajiv is certainly an expert on Immigration Laws and will give you your options, straight up. He has retained staff who are professional, helpful and supportive. Many, many thanks to Diane Lombardo, who was always available and also to Leila and Suman, who would return calls and e-mails in a timely manner. This is a Law Office which allows you to maintain sanity through the tedious and complex INS process, and one which I highly recommend.
I appreciate the work you all done for getting through the H1 and H4 intime. Thank you very much for Rajiv, Charu and Ursula
I started my relationship with Rajiv and team from 2000. They were with me all the time from 2000 to 2006 for whole journey of 6 years in my green card processing.
Half way through my company changed its name forced to start all over again and then went with the many hick ups due to my employer ( a start up company) going up and down. Rajiv team was with me to help me to resolve the issues. Finally my green card is approved after 4 EAD extensions. Thanks for the advice and constant help from Rajiv's team. I could have lost this battle long back with out your help. Once again Thanks for making it happen
PERM filed Nov. 20, 06 Approval notification on Nov. 27, 06 in just 7 days. Excellent teamwork and attention to detail by Amrita and Seema at Rajiv Khanna's office. Highly commendable.
Labor filed Nov 10 2006, Approval received Nov 16 2006.Amrita and Seema did a fantastic job. Of course Mr Khanna, the architect, once again proved his work.Keep up the good work.
I am doing my GC through your offices. In fact most of our employees from my company are doing their GC through your company. I was the first one and have referred quite a bit of my colleagues because they are well organized and well responsive the 2 main things that we can control, rest are controlled by USCIS. Good team of people and Vijay Durgam has helped me through this tough process and has been a great case manager for me. So did Anna Baker who has helped me with H1B related things though my H1B is not processed through Rajiv's office, they have always helped me. Great show team. Thanks to Rajiv and Team.

Few years back I entrusted my GC processing with Mr. Rajiv Khanna. The professionalism and prompt support extended by the entire team was so very impressive. This lead me file the GC’s of my employees when I started my software consulting firm. Over the years I have see the professionalism and focused attention each case is getting increase. Last week we filed PERM for another employee and support Seema and Amrita gave is really commendable
The professionalism and prompt support extended by Seema and Amrita gave is really commendable.
This firm takes client service to the next level. Rajiv's firm worked with me the first time for an H1B 3 years back. I had a great experience that time.
They have done it again this time for my Labor cert. Amrita and Seema worked on PERM with me and Amrita called me on a SATURDAY to inform me of the approval. Only 2 days after the filing! They pay attention to every detail and know their stuff.
Thank you Amrita, Seema and everyone at Mr. Khanna's office.
Seema and Amrita were extremely helpful in my process and they did everything on time. Good job!
Thanks and Regards.
My I-485 petition was filed just couple of weeks ago. I just wanted to appreciate the work Tarun Sharma did for my petition and the prompt responses.

Just came to know from the USCIS website that our I485 petitions have been approved and cards have been ordered. I want to thank each and every member of your firm who were with me through this long road that took 4 years and 7 months to travel . My sincere thanks to Richa Narang, Helen Anchillo, Kumuda Prasad, Attorney Jitesh Mallik and Attorney Mathew Chacko for handling various stages of our application process in the most efficient and professional ways possible. We call ourselves permanent residents today only because of the help and guidance that you provided and we sincerely appreciate your services. Specifically I would like to mention the promptness and efficiency that was shown by the team in responding to the I-140 RFE. During this past 5 years, there was never an email or a phone call that went unanswered from your office. That really shows how professional you are as a team.
My sincere thanks to you Mr. Khanna, for all the help and guidance that you
gave us through out the application process. You were always ready to answer all my questions (whether GC related or not) and I really appreciate all the help that you provided.

I would like to thank Mr. Khanna and his PROFESSIONAL team FOR help with my labor CERTIFICATION. I really appreciate the service I got from your office. I would especially like to thank Richa who was very helpful, thorough, prompt, diligent and very professional. Mr. Khanna was very detail oriented and pointed out at the smallest issues. I was amazed when I was told how many people review the case before it’s submitted. Due to this thorough work I got my labor approved in less than a month. I apologize to all who I have not named here for all the hard work they put in. I would recommend thEm to all my friends and family.
I could not find any guidelines for 7th year extension with the DOL PERM Program. In the six month period - less than 365 days but more than 180 days from the expiry of the six-year limit on my H1B, my company started the PERM process. In that six month period we got an approved I-140 and filed for Adjustment of Status. Would I qualify for 7th year extension ? Please note that I am a citizen of India and I thought there was also a provision for "Per Country Limit".
If you have an I-140 approval and your PD is backed up, you are entitled to a three-year H-1 extension beyond six years. It does not matter when your PERM was filed.
I am L2 visa holder and a physiotherapist from India. I also have SSN. Do I need to take the EAD or health care worker certificate to work in USA.Or simply credit evaluation and taking the licence is sufficient.
You need complete credentialing including a license.
WASHINGTON - U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) reminds customers that its new fee schedule goes into effect Nov. 23, 2010. Applications or petitions postmarked or otherwise filed on or after this date must include the new fee, or they will be rejected.
My current employer is my first job out of college. They placed me in the other worker category. Is it true that they cannot move me to a skilled worker category becuase this is my first job out of college?
If the job requires a Bach. degree, you are entitled to the skilled worker/EB-3 category.
My daughter she's going to be 21 next year and she's an American citizen, can she sponsor me?
She can sponsor you for your green card upon turning 21.
My perm application filed on July 2010 and got audit on September 2010. My employer sent audit response on October 2010. When I asked my employer how much time I would take then he said that now a days USCIS response within 3-4 months for new cases. How long does a PERM audit take?
The PERM audit can take a lot of time. I just checked with one of our case managers. They tell me that they have no figures for the time it takes between start and end of an audit, but the total decision life cycle (from filing to decision) of an audited case is 2 - 2.5 years.
I filed Perm under EB3 category on 1-Oct-2008. I got an audit. As per your current Perm dates, they are processing Aug'08 audits. Can I file with same employer under EB2? If yes, can I also keep EB3 file running parallelly. Is there a way for me to carry EB3 PD after I-140 Approval,if I file a new EB2? I completed 4yrs 2 months on H1B already. Please suggest me if I can change my employer now to file for EB2 or not. (If there is any way i can carry my EB3 PD for EB2 or not?). My lawyer said they can not change the current EB3 file to EB2 as they did not describe it for EB2 role.
It is logically inconsistent for two jobs from the same company for the same individual. If you have a good, logical, true explanation, there is no law that says you cannot have two PERM apps for the same individual for different jobs with the same company. But you cannot transfer PD until the I-140 is approved. I see no issue with changing jobs right away. You may have just enough time.
Hello everybody!!!
After a bad experience with a prominent NY law firm dealing with immigration, I came to this site. I was initially skeptical because the firm was not based in the city I work and live in but the promptness of getting the paperwork done, the willingness to answer doubts whenever they arose and reassuring me about my status when I had to leave the country on a sudden emergency back in India- all of these point to an organization and its people who clearly are the benchmark I would use for any professional service rendered in the future. Great job! Thanks.
