Dear Rajiv I am very much delighted to say that I received my Employment based permanent residency status last week. Hats off to you and your excellent team for having done this for me within 19 months. I never ever dreamed that I would get this status within such a short time. Throughout this period I never had a feeling that your office is somewhere hundreds of miles away as I got all the work done electronically within minutes, which would not have been possible even if I had an Attorney’s office in my neighborhood. I highly appreciate the excellent work, responsibility and the best & fastest communication delivered by you & your team. Also, kindly accept our heartfelt thanks for maintaining such a wonderful web site IMMIGRATION.COM, which is the best site I ever used to obtain real immigration related experiences & information. Please convey my wishes and thanks to Subha, Shivane, Leila and all others who did a splendid job related to my Green card and Sirisha, Charu & Rena related to my H1B renewal. GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR TEAM. Thanks again. MT

I am extremely pleased with the services provided by Mr. Rajiv Khanna and his extraordinary team in getting our Permanent Residence approval successfully. From the beginning, my case was reviewed (I started my process at around 3.5 years in to my H1 term) and I was given proper guidance to obtain the PR before my H1 expired. They were always there when we needed them. They paid personal attention to the various special requirements in handling my case at different phases of the whole process. Special thanks to Suman, Shivane, Subha and Leila for their undivided and prompt attention at different stages. Overall, it was a very pleasant experience. I would also like to thank you and the contributors to the Forum which provided me with many useful information.

My wife and I got our Passports stamped in Orlando, FL after less than 2 years of process. The whole GC process through with Rajiv S. Khanna as our attorney and his office was a wonderful experience. With Mr Khanna's guidance we haven't had any problem during the whole process. This saved us a lot of time, I know it because I have seen people who started their process long before me but they haven't got their green card I would like to thank all of his team members, especiallly Suman and Leila. In particular, I would like to mention their proffesionallism, concern,understanding and patience. They have retuened my emails and calls promtly Rajiv and his staff made the whole process very easy, simple and painless. I would recommend him to everyone who needs help and a great expert on immigration issues

Mr. Khanna was awesome. He is our corporate attorney for Immigration needs, and his knowledge in various situations and addressing all your queries are awesome. All in his team, Diane, Fran, Heather are very knowledgeable and very good in all documentation process. Mr. Khanna advised my case of H1B GC processing in EB1C since I was a manager in the overseas entity, he provided right guidance and set clear expectations on the possible outcomes, and handed the situation very nicely. Diane, who was handling my case, excellent in followups, you don't need to ask anything, all the SR / queries were handled by Diane without me asking it. Very impressive. thank you Mr. Khanna , Diane, and team for your excellent role.

DHS Final Rule for F–1 Nonimmigrant Students With STEM Degrees and CapGap Relief
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) proposes to amend F-1 nonimmigrant student visa regulations on optional practical training (OPT) for certain students with degrees in science, technology, engineering, or mathematics (STEM) from U.S. institutions of higher education. Specifically, the proposal would allow such F-1 STEM students who have elected to pursue 12 months of OPT in the United States to extend the OPT period by 24 months (STEM OPT extension). This 24-month extension would effectively replace the 17-month STEM OPT extension currently available to certain STEM students.
