Great Firm, excellent service. Ursula E., was very dilligent, sincere, provided excellent customer service. The firm is fortunate to have paralegals of such great calibre.
I filed the application form for EAD with the help of our lawyer in the Atlanta office on January 8, 2004. Two months later we got the Notice of Action from Missouri office with two dates - Received Date: January 8, 2004 and Notice Date: March 8, 2004, which was a little bit confusing.
My EAD renewal (at VSC) had been pending for more than 110 days, so I decided to go to the CIS office in Bloomington, MN to get an interim EAD.On Jan 22, 04 the temperature was -10F with the windchill of -30F. I arrived at the CIS office at 7.25 AM. The office was already open. Inside, there were already 50 or so people in the line. The security officer gave me a ticket. After waiting in the line for an hour, I finally reached the security gate and went to the waiting room. It was 8.40 AM.
I got my Interim EAD card based on OPT.
I went to the Bloomington USCIS office (MN) around 4:20 am on Jan 7, 2004. As the weather was cold there were not many people. Somebody made a list and I was the fiteenth person.
Around 6 a.m, we made a line based on the list.
The office opened at 6:30 am.
The officer there started work at 7am. She asked me the reason why I was there and gave me a ticket. I got a ticket and went to another office.
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!
Philadelphia district office EAD Interview scheduled 2.5 months after filing the marriage-based I485 package. People visiting for appointments need not wait in the line. The interview process is only taking a photo, leaving the finger print. the EAD card was printed out right away. The whole process took about 20 minutes, excluding waiting time in the waiting room.
I would like to first thank you for all your support and help to the
community with their immigration matters.
Here is our ( unpleasant experience ) getting my wife's Interim EAD (we applied Sept 23, 03 ) at San Francisco USCIS.
January 09 2004
8:50 am Got to the USCIS office.
I went at 10.15 am with I-140,I-765 and I-485 receipt, they gave me a token and new I-765 application to be filled up and called me at 2.15 pm. They checked the above documents, Passport and took my photo and gave me EAD instantly.There is no need to take separate photos and go.
Just wanted to share me and my wife's experience in at the Memphis Sub-Office on January 5, 2004. The Memphis office is severely backlogged currently in regards to AOS and EAD applications. We filed the I-765 for my wife on September 10th and hadn't heard anything. After corresponding with our congressional representative, we were told to travel to Memphis (a 350 mile trip) on any Monday to receive an interim EAD. We traveled to Memphis on Sunday to be ready first thing in the morning. Sunday night we decided to check out the office and went to the front door.
I had filed for my EAD renewal 3 months before the expiry date (September 16th). While my EAD was approved a little before 90 days, my wife's EAD was not renewed. They requested additional evidence (marraige certificate and I140 approval notice). After USCIS received the evidence and the USCIS website was updated, we went to Memphis on friday, January 2nd, 2004 (the day of the week when interim EADs are issued in Memphis) hoping that they would issue an interim EAD (since it was more than 90 days after the original receipt notice).
Thanks to Mr. Rajiv Khanna's team for going through the long process of Green Card. I got my green card last week. Especially my thanks to Mr Mathew Chacko and Mr Vijay Durgam. They are so helpful in my case.
Your team was very helpful, right from start to finish. I am definitely going to come back to your office for future immigration needs. Thank You for all your help.
I got Mr. Khanna's Reference from a friend of mine as Immigration Lawyer. Since my first discussion,and then applying for H1-B visa for one of my employees, Mr. Khanna and his staff has been exceptional in response, knowledge, promptness and understanding. To say the least our employee got the H1-B visa and everybody is so happy, that all our future work needed for our company on immigration question will be done by M. Khanna's office.
Awesome work, we are regular clients of their law firm and each time the experience is the same: Helpful, fast and APPROVALS!

Rajiv Khanna's office is handling my Green Card process and in general, his entire team is very responsive and provide a good support. I received an RFE on my I140 petition, with very peculiar queries. Sheena Gill took the responsibility of compiling the response for the RFE. She did a great job in following up and compiling the evidences and gave me very good suggestions. She was prompt in responding and provided necessary information to me to take the appropriate steps. It has been great to work with her. Her dedication, effort she expends are great. Great Team.

Rajiv a kind-hearted and knowledgeable person who handles the cases very cleverly. We get good advices from him always. I also have to mention that Rajiv has a very good team in his office. They also act immediately and response quickly for all our issues and questions. I understand all his team people are good in providing a good service to clients. Especially I would like to thank Attorney Mathew Chacko, who is a very good man personally and officially while handling my case. Mathew acted very quick and responded my questions immediately without any hesitation. Every time I get upset Rajiv and Mathew only convinced and encouraged me. I really thank other team members Subha, Prerna, Bharathi also for their immediate and quick action every time. I strongly recommend every one to go through Rajiv's Office for you immigration process. He and his team not only act as an Attorney's Office but they acted as a very close family member to get GC and other process for us. I cannot forget Rajiv and his team in my life time. They lighted my future with brightness. Once again my heartfelt thanks to Rajiv and his team.
