Intrem EAD at Chicago Local office
I have applied for my 3rd EAD on May 11,2005. My current EAD was expiring on July 23,2005. Since It has been 70 days, and I have not received the new EAD, I got the infopass appointment for today @7:30 and got out from there at 8:30 with IEAD for 3 months. Here is what I've noticed.
you are looking for competent, aggressive lawyer, your search ends here. Do NOT hire ordinary lawyers that your company asks you to hire.
My wife & kids H4 was not renewed and were Out of Status due to company's fault and my ignorance and trust on the company. This happened in 2003. We hired a local lawyer, best in town, to handle my case in 2005, when I found out on my own that my dependant's H4 was not renewed. We applied at USCIS, but was rejected. We appealed in the Court, but was denied.
I contacted Rajiv Khanna and we applied in 2008, after more than 4 years in Out of Status. My H1 was renewed, along with H4 in 2 days!!!!! Can you believe it?
After 4 years of Mental tension and all the agony, we passed through, we felt so relieved.
We got our new I-94s attached for my wife and 2 kids. Great People, Nice Dedicated Staff, Intelligent Lawyers.
I would recommend him to anyone, no matter how big or small the case is, Do NOT look any further. I did all my research for all these years looking for good lawyer, don't spend any more time searching. If you are in trouble, take my advice, talk to him and he can definitely help you. I was told by other lawyers that there was no chance that I would be able to get them back on status. but Miracle happens and it happened to me. Lots of smart work at Rajiv's end. Thanks Rajiv and Good Luck to all.
The service provided by Art Shiflet and Mathew Chacko from Mr.Khanna's office during my citizenship process was exceptional. They both provided me prompt answers to my inquiries, updated me with information as soon as they became available and were extremely knowledgeable . I would highly recommend Mr.Khanna's office for any sort of immigration cases
Both me and my wife filed for our I-485 processing through LORK in July 2007. My file got through and I received my EAD,I-485 receipts and AP. But my wife's file got lost in USCIS and we did not got any receipts. Roopa and Matthew put in great efforts to get her application through. We really appreciate the work done by entire Rajiv's team.
Fran Fisher and Anna Baker were very dedicated to insuring that this sensitive issue was processed diligently. Follow up was constant, insuring that nothing was left undone.
I would like to give special thanks to Mathew Chacko,Rita Dhakal,Pramitha , Suman B for thier prompt service & quick responses during the process.The GC was filed in May 2003 & from then till April 2008 ( when my 485 got approved, wife is yet to be aproved )I have been in close touch with RK's office & I really should say that how every busy these guys are, they have always got back to me for any questions,doubts that I had from time to time.
I have heard stories from other colleagues , friends about some law offices & how they handle the client GC cases.I would highly recommend RK's office & his team to anyone who wants to file his GC thru employment. You are guys are no -1 in every way.
I would also add that my employer has been equally cooperative & supportive to me during the whole process.
A big thanks to Rajiv and his excellent team including Mathew, Heather, Mark, Anna, Rena and everyone else who touched my case over the past five years. Thank you for sharing my pain when I was waiting (sometimes impatiently) for the Green Card and for responding to all my questions (of which there have been many) as I tried to understand the options available to me through the green card process as well as all the H1B renewals.
Rajiv, thank you also for the phone consultations as they have helped my decisions during crucial moments in my career.
Thanks to Mr. Vijay Durgam and his firm who did a great job to get my Labor certification done in less than 4 months of application.
Rajiv has an excellent team in Mathew & Heather. They are very knowledgeable, proactive & understanding. They would call me at home with an update. I highly recommend Rajiv and his team of Mathew & Heather as your case managers
Wonderful and thorough team- Att. Diane, Sheena and Matthew helped me at every step with RFE for I-140 as well as I-485. Ever ready and alert team. They would call me immediately whenever we were in need. Besides, Mr Khanna, personally took interest and supported, made suggestions when we had queries. Att. Diane and Sheena worked very hard on my case and did their best to put the message across.
I am grateful to you all and thank myself for choosing you.

I had my interview at the Dallas DO today May 14th. It went very well. I was very nervous about my extensive travel over the past 5 years. I had some 800 odd days of travel that included trips to a lot of countries in the world. But none of my trips was over 6 months, the maximum trip length was 110 days. I was working for a US company as a contractor and did have a letter from the company for the reason for the numerous visits.
Dear ones,
I just had the most happiest International Women's Day yesterday
First of all, I want to thank all of you guys. This forum has been really helpful in understanding and providing information on the interview procedures and papers to take and everything. Thanks ari4u, especially. You are a keystone in this forum!!
Hello,
I had my Interview yesterday in Northern Virginia. The appointment was at 1:00 PM, we arrived at abt 12:30. We were called in at our scheduled time. The officer was cordial. He asked the usual questions, like if I have ever been arrested etc..., He went through the affidavit of support, had questions for my husband regarding his employment letter, checked our passports, asked us both questions about each other, i.e our In-Laws Names, How we met, when we got married, how many guests, What cars we own, date of births, my employer details etc...
I went for my interview, which went well. No surprises with a nice officer.
The common, have you ever questions...no no no no!
We were asked about the spouse's siblings,our honeymoon, when and how we met, how long we'd been dating before marriage, but nothing tricky.
Quite easy I would say.
The officer checked Id's, last taxreturn with W-2s, updated address (because we moved), marriage cert.
I am a USC applying green card for my wife who has been a full-time student for 5 years. We had our AOS interview at Portland, Oregon today (April 20, 2006.)
Our interview was scheduled at 2:00pm and we arrived at the waiting room around 1:20pm. We got called by a very nice officer around 2:05pm and was out of the building around 2:32pm.
I got my wife's I-94 corrected (it had expired for 10 days) by going to the EWR airport office
which was my wife's port of entry.
They had also put an incorrect classification of WT on the I94
instead of an H4 and as such corrected it promptly.
I want to thank your law firm and also Mr. Khanna in particular
for his proper guidance to me in this delicate and urgent matter.
Thanks to Richa and Mohana, for your timely and well organised support, I got my PERM Labor Approved within 10 Days!!
I have a lot of experience with the immigration lawyers. This time with Rajiv's office is a WAY different (better) experience:
* immaculate filing preparation - this is not some sloppy paralegal preparing your docs with bunch of misspellings and inaccuracies;
* excellent communication - forget your voice-mails with no responses or the your attorney's email black-hole. Rajiv's teams are fast in response and their answers are clear and focused on what you need to know.
* deadline oriented - with Rajiv S. Khanna's office you KNOW the answer of all your when,where,why and hows....If they commit to date - that is your filing date.You never get nonsense excuses.
* respect - all we know that immigration process is not straigth forward and trivial process. Some times things can get bumpy and you may loose your patience. At this time you need moral support and respect no less then a legal help. Rajiv's team is there for you - your best friend and guide. Actually you become at some point member of the team.
* professional awareness - here I'm going to say just one thing and if you read this you'll understand what I'm talking about. This is the first attorney company that I'm working with and I DO NOT have the feeling that I'm more up to date with the immigration law changes and updates then my attorney.
I know at a time I sound like commercial ad, so let me put some names to my words.
My awes goes to the Mathew and Aruna team. Thank you for the excellent job done so far.
And here is my time-line:
PERM: FD: 8/11/2005 AD: 9/12/2005
EAD AD 10/4/2006
AP AD 10/4/2006
I140 AD 8/5/2006
I485 .. soon...
Khanna and his colleagues (Richa,Mohana) did a great job in getting my labor certifed with in 8 days,I like their personal interest in going through the documents very keenly to cover up pit holes,sending the drafts timely at each stage,followup and more over very honest in giving status about whatz going on with the case.
I can recommend anyone to blindly go ahead and trust this people.i feel blessed by knowing these folks and working with them.YOU WILL HAVE A PEACE OF MIND WORKING WITH THEM.
Thank you everyone in Mr.Khanna’s firm.
Law offices Of Rajiv S Khanna provides high quality professional services. They are very organized and have immense knowledge and experience to deal with immigration cases.
I would highly recommend them simply because they work as a well co-ordinated team to deliver services.
Special Thanks to Suman Bhasin, Richa Narang and Mohana Navran for their timely help, mammoth efforts and valuable legal advise.
Excellent quality service. Immediate e-mails response. Paperwork prepared very well. Mr Khanna is very knowledgeable attorney. Very good representation.
My sincere thanks to Rajiv Khanna and Amrita for their efforts in getting my PERM approved in a remarkable time frame.
My case was a bit complicated. Initially my PERM application got rejected three times over a four week period. The DOL was being quite vague about the reason stating that the alien does not qualify for the job.
However Mr. Khanna's expertise in this matter and dedication of Amrita got my application through, in the fourth attempt,
in a matter of three business days.
Mr.Khanna is very patient and helpful when it comes to dealing with employers. He spoke with my employer several times throughout the process, answered all the
queries that my employer had and helped him understand the perm process.
I really feel that Amrita put her heart in to my case. Amrita was extremely good about acting promptly on the rejection letters
from DOL. My Advertisements were expiring in 3 days from the day the fourth attempt was made. If she hadn't acted quickly i
probably wouldn't have had a chance.
I personally feel that Mr. Khanna's Law office pays close attention to details. They
are also very good about responding promptly to emails, phone calls and clarifying the smallest doubt you may have.
I strongly recommend their services.
I tried 2 different attorneys before employing law offices of Rajiv Khanna, one attorney took money but didn't even bother to call me and other who wouldn't fill the basic information properly before filing the application for LC. Myself and My wife, we got our passports stamped yesterday (11/21/2002), the whole process took us about 2 yrs and 1month without any problem or query from INS. Working with the team of Rajiv Khanna was PLEASANT. Being a professional myself, I am really pleased with their DILIGENCE, PROFICIENCY, CONFIDENCE and EXPERIENCE. Even though my company messed up in making monthly payments, Ms. Lakshmi Kompella, Ms. Diane Lombardo and Ms. Suman Bhasin gave me an opportunity to clean it up without holding up the processing of my application. I am thankful for their CARE and UNDERSTANDING. Ms. Leila Lehman are praise worthy too, for all their support and PERSONAL attention given to my case. Thanks to the whole team for making the process EASY and PLEASURABLE. If the job needs to be done RIGHT, this is "THE TEAM".
