I would like to thank Mr.Rajiv and his team (especially Anna Baker and Fran Fischer) for getting my H1B transfer with extension. It may sound simple but both my I-94 and Visa were expired for more than 240 days and my extension with the previous employer was pending with USCIS for almost 9 months. We were really impressed with the way the case was prepared and presented to the USCIS. Anna Baker and Fran Fisher was very supportive during the entire process and answering even the simplest of questions promptly. I was surprised one evening when Anna called me at 7:30 PM to discuss about the case. That shows the level of professionalism by LORK's team. I would recommend LORK for all immigration needs.

We thank you very much Mr. Rajiv Khanna, for providing us by far the best advisement on our case. Your suggested course of action turned out to be the winner since it comprehensively favored us. So we would like to take this opportunity to convey our appreciations for your meticulous judgment and astute advisement on our case.
We believe that people, who engaged services of Mr. Khanna's law firm for their immigration matters have certainly made one of the best choices in their lives. Also we would strongly recommend hiring Law Offices of Mr. Rajiv S Khanna, if anyone can choose to pick and is on the look out for a reputable Law firm to handle his/her immigration needs. Rest assured you can’t go wrong with that decision. In fact your case will be dealt with utmost trust and care by this firm that you won’t worry about anything ever again. Surely, you will agree that such a feeling is priceless.
Mr. Khanna and his staff constantly keep abreast of all the changes that are taking place in immigration law on daily basis is another reason why one should trust them completely.
Rajiv Khanna and associates are helping me in my Green Card processing since January 2004 and recently they did a very good job to get me the I-140 approval. I received an RFE on my I-140 in Feb 09 and response was well prepared by one of the Lawyers and sent within a weeks time. I got the approval on my I-140 just after a weeks time. It was a great job and effort from the Rajiv Khanna's office and their associates. I appreciate their good work and would recommend them to anyone who is looking for a good immigration lawyer for their Green Card or any other immigration related work.

Synopsis
Fundamentally, is litigation against delays in the immigration process a viable option in your case? The answer is perhaps it is, but be mindful of the relevant factors, including the uncertainty of the outcome and expenses involved.

I was selected for cap H1B. I am looking to file for pharmacist position in MD. However, at the moment I do not have a MD state license. I have a PA state license. Will I be able to apply for H1 without the MD state license. I will be able to get the license before October but not by end of June. What other positions can I apply for to get H1 with Pharm D
Currently, if you do not have a license, but it has been applied, the USCIS should approve for a full three years if they send an RFE and the license is approved by that time. Otherwise, they should approve for one year.

H-4 visa is not tied to your employer. Your change of employer does not affect a valid H-4 approval or visa.
