Law offices of Rajiv S. Khanna has provided great service in getting my employment based I- 1485 approved. I contacted Rajiv's office little more than a year ago for phone consulation in changing employer using AC-21. Upon his advice, i continued my AC21 process. Rajiv's advice is always very neutral, practicle and straigh forward. Later on, my case was sent to local office for interview. He helped me prepare documents and answers for the interview process. He even offered his personal cell phone number in case I need to contact him during the interview. My case was approved in almost a month after the interview. My main contact in Rajiv's office was Mark Riddick. He was extermely patient, supportive and very quick in responding my numerous questions. He helped me prepare every single detail for the interview. Without that type of help and support, the interview experience would have been very difficult. Matthew, Heather, Lesli, Art also helped me a lot. Overall, I had a very professional and satisfactory experience working with Rajiv Khanna and his team. Thank you very much.

My wife and I received our I-485 approval on July 3rd 2010 EB2 Category with PD September 23 2005. Rajiv S. Khanna was our attorney and he has simply wonderful team of case workers.I like to thank personally Prerna Mehta who was very helpful in every step of my I 485 and I 140 process. Also I want to thank Richa Narang for following up with me regarding GC filing during initial stages which lead to my GC approval. I like to thank Rita Dhakal who helped me in filing I 485 case by reviewing the file very carefully and pointing out any mistakes and it lead to my I485 approval. This is a great team of attorneys who you cannot get any where else. They are highly professional and very efficient. They are very polite and calm whenever you call them and also you get the response very quickly. Over all this was a great experience for me personally. I would consult them in the future if I need any immigration related legal advice. All I can say is that they both feel just like family and are truly the best team i have worked with for any such legal matters or otherwise. Thanks to Rajiv and his excellent team.

The Federation of State Boards of Physical Therapy’s Board of Directors has reaffirmed its prior decision to suspend NPTE testing for candidates educated in Egypt, India, Pakistan and the Philippines until the NPTE-YRLY can be developed.

With the good movement in the Aug 2010 bulletin, the AOS got approved for my family. Without the guidance of the entire team at Law offices of Rajiv Khanna that worked on my case, this would not have been possible. To name a few that i remember starting with Rajiv who gave me good confidence to hire him for the services during our intial conversations: Rajiv, Prerna, Richa, Moahana, Mathew, Anna, Leslie, Heather, Mark. I am sorry if i have missed out anyone and the people behind the scenes. Each one of these guys have been amazing and great and never was i disappointed in the whole process (except for the long wait, which is not your fault). I very fondly remember the visagate episode in 2007. When the word spread around about it, it was late in the evening and someone was there in your office to answer my queries, which helped me make a decision to drive overnight, down to Staunton from New Haven CT, along with my 4 month old, my wife and my father in law to reach there early morning and finish the process of filing for the I-140 and I-485. Everybody at the office was very helpful even under the stress that they were in when being bombarded by so much to do in such a short time. Additionally i believe the right advise was always delivered in a timely manner and everyone worked with me to help my case progress at a good pace. I cannot thank you enough for all your help and guidance and would very highly recommend your services to anyone. Thanks again for your help. Warm Regards Yash Agarwal

We just did recently receive our US Green Card (EB2) for both my wife and me. Keeping all those melodrama apart, in short, is extremely pleased and has no words to express ourselves. We want to thank everyone working with Law Offices of Rajiv (Immigration.com) and especially Mathew, Suman-Ji, Bharathi, Anna, Rita and last but not the least Rajiv himself. On a true note, they are extremely professional and super prompt in answering any of your stupidest questions on Immigration. Rajiv is extremely desperate in taking cases through to positive destiny using and interpreting every piece of immigration law that according to me, a lot of his competitors would try and avoid.
In last 6-years they have done our multiple successful H1B/H4 renewals, this Green Card case, and hopefully would be the one helping us on our US Citizenship process, about 5-years from now.
All of you guys out there, if you have any immigration issues, and want a little piece of mind, please do not wait. schedule an immediate appointment with them and be happy from thereon.
Just for information, our US born baby girl is about 2.5 months old now. Once she grows up a bit, would surely want to pay them a visit. We wish them all the very best as of now and in future.

I really appreciate their timely response for all our immigration needs while the GC was in process. We are thankful to Rajiv and his staff.
I was very lucky to have Rajiv Khanna's team file my application because the person who worked with me was very patient, very detailed, very sensitive to my concerns.

I have had a very good experience on my Green Card process from the attorneys at immigration.com. My application process started off around 2007 and till date, all the time I have received friendly response from all the staff from this attorney(I have interacted with around 3 or 4 people during my green card process) Specifically, I want to highlight Sheena Gill on her approach, care and attention she shows. My green card process had some hiccups in the form of I140 RFE and she did a great job on responding to that RFE. If not her, I may have been in trouble. She spent extra effort in understanding the reason of RFE and then suggested me to bring various evidence, did excellent job in compiling them and writing up a detailed RFE response. I was also very impressed, when Sheena tried tell me that my I485 was approved. She tried to call me, but due to mobile signal issues, I was not reachable. She dug out my home phone number and contacted my spouse to find out where I am. In comparison, others would have just left a voice mail and could have waited until I call them back. Apart from the Green Card process, I have received tips and help on other USCIS related matters from all the team at immigration.com, with out making me feel that they are doing favor. I have recommended these attorneys to few of my friends and will keep doing that in future.
