We got our 485 approval (07/13/02) and got that stamped in the passport from the local INS. There are no words to thank Rajiv S Khanna and his team. Diane, Leila, and Suman had helped us in each and every stage and more important thing is, they return the call in matter of hours. Very prompt and courteous in reply, and they are all highly talented. There were no unanswered questions and I would recommend Rajiv and his team to anyone. With their teams doing the process, I knew I am in safe hands. Thank you all.

I have used this firm for a number of years for H-1B visas. They are extremely professional and organized. And most recently I had an employee require H-1B status quickly due to a student visa heading toward expiration. We did the premium process through this group and the approval came back in much less than the 15 day turnaround time. That in itself should tell you everything you need to know. If you don't hire this group, you are doing yourself a disservice.

S2Tech is a global software development company with offices in St. Louis and Hyderabad, India. S2Tech provides customized software solutions to its diverse clients base. S2Tech has been working with Law Offices of Rajiv Khanna for the past four years. One of the core competency of Mr. Rajiv Khanna is leveraging information technology to provide BEST service to his clients. The following are some of the examples: 1. Domain name of immigration.com 2. Use of electronic e-mail to answer questions from his clients within one day. 3. Use of Adobe products to reduce/eliminate certain physical mailings and expedite information delivery to his clients. 4. Use of website to provide quick answers to frequently answered questions, provide status information from various centers, and build a community. 5. Send free newsletter to interested persons in an automated fashion. Even though technology is being used heavily, Rajiv Khanna is always accessible over the phone to his clients. It is just that clients like me who are crunched for time interact with him electronically. I would recommend Law Offices of Rajiv Khanna to all the busy entrepreneurs, fast growing companies, and all IT companies.

Please sign PETITION FOR REISSUANCE within the usa of H-1, F-1, and other NONIMMIGRANT VISAS
I encourage you to sign a petition I have drafted at the request of our community urging the Obama Administration to reinstate reissuance of nonimmigrant visas (including work visas like H-1, student visas like F-1, and family visas) within the USA, a practice that was discontinued in 2004. If the petition receives 100,000 on-line signatures by February 23, the Administration will review it, send it to the appropriate policy experts in the administration, and issue an official response. Signing the petition takes only a few minutes.

Question details
My H-1B status will expire the last week of January 2013. I cannot file my petition for an extension until after January 1, 2013. Will that be too late to file an extension?

If the I-140 is already approved, then an amendment needs to be filed by the successor-in-interest petitioner. Note that the successor-in-interest petitioner must take over the rights and liabilities of the earlier petitioner, including the immigration matters.

Immigrant Intent in Issuance of J Visas
Question details
I was in US from 2003 on F-1. I finished my Ph.D. here and changed to J-1 Status. I want to travel during 2012 summer, but need to go for J-1 Stamping. Do you think it will be a problem? Is there a chance that I might be stopped because of 214(b)?
Immigrant intent is definitely a consideration for issuance of J visas. As to whether or not you may have a problem is impossible to predict. If you can have a safety net of an H-1 (if needed), you would be better off.
