Thaks a Zillion for a SPEEDY ~ 3 Years of EB2 GC thru Rajiv Khanna's office. Rajiv, Suman, Leila, Diane and his entire team is very diligent, co-operative & couteous. Although Rajiv is extremely busy, he is just a phone-call away for any trivial, repeating questions & support
Rajiv and his office staff are very responsive and quick.I appreciate all their help in my GC process.I specially thankful to Rajiv,Leila Lehman and Diane Lombardo for their timely advise and filing appropriate applications. Thanks
"Went to the local Houston USCIS office by 4:50 am on friday Jul 11, 2003 and found myself behind 100 people (folks camping out...looked like a slumber party. They sure let us in by 6:15am and got a number (186) & processed by around 12:45pm.
We are extremely impressed with the professional but friendly, courteous and timely consultation assistance rendered by Rajiv and his able team member Savita. We look forward to working with them in the years to come. We also feel that we should advise others who look for 'no-frill' down-to-earth non-intimidating services, they should contact Rajiv and his team.
Thank you very much to Ursula and Rajiv for prompt and professional service in preparing my second H-1B application. I have various experience working with another lawyers before and very happy with excellent job you guys did for me. I can gladly refer anybody to use your services. Warm Regards, Irina Pozyvaylo (country of origin - Ukraine)
First of all I wanted to thank you Mathew & Rajiv Khanna for their superb service during my Green Card Process. Below is the my story: I applied for Green Card at 2003 under EB3 category and my priority date was Dec 2003 via Company X when I was working for Company Y. After years of waiting I decided to ask for the possibility of applying via EB2 category for Company Y. Rajiv & Mathew has studied my case throughly and decided to go ahead with Eb2 process. Perm Labour took 2 months, I-140 took 15 days (premium processing), I-485 porting took 4 months. Totally it took almost 14months to get my Green Card under EB2.
Our GC process fell apart when the company was closed which put us out of status since my huband and i were on EAD and Rajiv and his team helped us in get our H1-B and H-4 visas. We had made some mistakes in the filing of my H1-B and so was denied and was at a risk of having to go back to India since i was out of status but it was a diffcult option since i was pregnant so with the help of Rajiv's team i was able to get my H4 with an i94 and did not have to travel back to India. I thank Anna, Judi, Jagbir and everyone else who worked on our case.

I contacted immigration.com., and got an email back the next day, and phone consult set up with Rajiv Khanna two days later. He was extremely helpful, explaining to me the weaknesses and opportunities of my case, and actually gave me some reference point to talk to my employer. I am grateful to Rajiv and his staff for their assistance, and would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for quality legal opinion on their immigration cases.

It was a pleasure working with Rajiv's office on an H1 application for our employee. Though there was a considerable amount of paperwork required as a result of the increased diligence from DHS lately, we got good instructions with clear guidelines on what was needed at each step. Anna and Fran answered our questions very promptly and capably. They were also very careful to consult Rajiv on any legal opinions. I know Rajiv handles a lot of cases, but with the processes he has in place and attention his staff gave to this case, we might as well have been his only client. Thanks Rajiv, Anna and Fran.
Thanks to Rajiv and his team for their excellent work. I applied for GC in EB2, non RIR, in Nov'1999 and got the stamping in passport in Nov'2001. The team is very experienced and knowledgeable. They are prompt in filing all documents with DOL and INS in all the stages of processing. Rajiv and his team is very prompt in replying to all my email queries. I strongly recommend Rajiv for your GC processing.
