I want to share with you our unbelievable story how we got our interim EAD at Bloomington INS office in Minneapolis, MN
1. We have our EAD renewal pending at VSC since 9/18 and the current one is going to expire end of this month.
2. Our application for EAD renewal was delayed by major distractions, circumstances and poor planning.
3. We had no chance of getting the EAD renewal before the current one expires and we were in difficult situation of loosing the jobs if we dont hv EAD (it is a different story that I save it for another day).
I-765 filed online 09/10/03 (Basis I485 filed on Sep'02 and approved I-140 on Dec'02) Went to BOSTON USCIS office on Dec 9th, 2003 (91st day)Current EAD expires on 12/10/03 (working on EAD)
Timeline:
6:00AM: Arrived and found there are around 20 people ahead of me.
7:00am: Entered building and told that I am there are EAD extension. I was asked for I-765 notice (it is exactly 91st day after filing)and asked me to fill a new I-765 form and got a "E" number.
ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC LEGAL SERVICES!!!It's with heartfelt appreciation and gratitude that I want to express my Thanks to the Staff of Law Offices of Rajiv S. Khanna, especially to Ms. Charu Bhagat, Ms. Reena Wadel and Ms. Sirisha Durgam for the patience with which they worked my very complicated case. I was basically in an out-of-status mode in the US for a long time with my past employment and it was a big question as to whether I would get my Visa transfer approved. Thanks to the ABSOLUTELY METICULOUS preparation of documents and the constant communication between INS and Rajiv S. Khanna's Office that amde it happen. The only thing that I would STRONGLY reccomend anyone that has the privilege of getting help from Rajiv S. Khanna's Office is...1. Be Patient and WORK (really, without question) with the lawyers who are handling your case.2. PROVIDE every bit of documentation asked for and be very PROMPT with it.3. Respect their effort in helping you and do not be impatient.Ms. Sirisha, Ms. Charu and Ms. Reena were three of the most friendly and helpful persons. Thank you so much!!Aravinth Kaliappan
It was a very pleasant experience working with the Law Offices. I would like to make a special reference to the person I worked with who kept me informed on each step during the process removing any anxiety - I did get prompt responses on all queries and she returned every call, that was amazing. I look forward to working with this team again when I apply for my Green Card.Thank and appreciate all your efforts.
Rajiv Khanna and the people at his office did a very good job in processing my Green card. All of the people(Leila Lehman, Shivane Sharma,and others), I used to contact were very knowledgable. It has been a nice experience! Thanks and keep up your good work!
Wanted to share my experience about issuance of interim EAD at Dallas office. I had filed EB-2 NIW petition and I485/765 concurrently in June. Since I did not hear from USCIS, went to Dallas office on Nov 20 at 8 am; got our number ticket by 9am; hwent in and sat down. The nos dont really go in order, but we got called about 12.45; the officer just wanted receipt notices of I485 and I 765; she called TSC to confirm pendency of the applications and then came back and said she will issue 8 month interim EAD's for my wife and me.
There were approx 25 people in line ahead of us.
Doors opened at 7am. We got our interim EAD's by 10:40am.
All they looked at was the receipt notice and asked us to fill another I-765 form. We had taken a copy .
Nearly everything about interim work permits are anecdotal, and even the USCIS.gov information is vague, but I took my chances yesterday, November 17, 2003, and found out that it is true that one can have same-day processing for I-765 applications which have passed the 90 day waiting time---at least those which have been sent to California service center.
got an interim EAD while I was waiting for my EAD to be processed. I filed it online hoping that it will be the same processing. The thing is that if you e-file online, you have to wait for the appoval of your application. In short, it won't do you good if you're in a hurry getting that permit. They give me a 90-day interim EAD because I have a pending I-485 application filed in the San Francisco District Office. I will suggest to go to the office instead of mailing or e-filing it.
I went to San Jose (CA) office and got the interim EAD. Following is my experience." I and my wife went to San Jose Office on 20th Nov 2003. This was actually 91st day from my recipt date of both I-485 and I-765. Reached there at 7 O clock and found around 50 people ahead of me in the line. Got in at around 8, got a token. I was called at 9. The officer asked me for the filled out application forms, receipt notices and then asked about my I-140. I told him that my I-140 along with my I-485 and I-765 is pending. He asked me for copy of my I-140 receipt notice.
I am very much impressed with the professionalism of two of Mr Khanna's staffers. Shivane and Prerna were very patient and worked very hard to complete all the forms and putting the supporting documents together before filing with USCIS. I would certainly recommend this firm to others. Keep up the good work.
Recently I got my H-1B visa approval.I really appreciate Mr.Khanna's quick response to e-mails inspite of his busy schedule.Throughout in my H-1B process approval I never get any problem. I am very glad I choose this law firm. Thanks million to Mr. Khanna and his professional team (Especially Miss Sirisha Durgham)I would definitely like to continue Mr. Khanna's consultation as my lawyer in future.
I am very much impressed by the punctuality, promptness, helpful attitude and friendly gestures of all the staff with whom I had the opportunity to interact. I highly recommend Mr.Khanna's office and staff for all immigration purposes.

It’s a pleasure and an honor to recommend Mr. Rajiv Khanna and his Law Offices. I am writing to express my deep gratitude for RajivJi’s guidance over the past 1.5 years starting with PERM audit, supervised recruitment and through I-140 RFE and right to the I-140 approval. In all the conversations with him, he has always given me honest, straightforward assessments, and creative suggestions, which in turn gave me immense confidence even when situations looked gloomy. He backed this case right from day 1, possibly more than how much I backed myself on it.
I strongly believe, RajivJi’s intellectual brilliance and creativity coupled with his decisiveness at various critical junctures through the tough phases were the most significant keys to success in my case. I have firm conviction, that RajivJi’s immigration law expertise is second to none in the country.
I tip my hat to you!
Over the last 5 years, I worked closely with his some of his folks. This is a big shout out to VijayJi, Bharathi, Kunal, Suman and Kalpana.
Vijay Ji, I can’t thank you enough for zillions of hours you spent on going through and organizing all the hundreds of resumes received through supervised recruitment. Vijay Ji, you went over and beyond. I specifically remember, when you went to USPS at 8:30PM to send the package on time! Thank you very much.
Kunal, I greatly appreciate your thoroughness and the meticulous planning of I-140 RFE response. In all my interactions with you, you made me feel confident by answering all my questions and spending time with me discussing nitty-grittys of the content.
Bharathi, Thank you so much for pulling things together for multiple RFEs and answering my numerous phone calls and emails patiently.
When I met all of them at their Arlington office, the one thing that struck most to me is that they put a human face to my case and made me feel like a part of their amazing family. Gestures like that is what separates this bunch from any other.
Kudos to you all!
Warm Regards,
SK
