I got married last month ! My husband is a GC holder and next year is going to become Citizen , I have my GC (I-140- Approved) with a priority date of September 2019 on EB3 . What are my best options here ? Do I wait for him to become a citizen and then apply for my GC through his citizenship ? Or shall I apply GC now through his GC status, before he becomes a citizen ? Or shall I wait for mine ? Will my pending GC still be valid if I apply through my spouse ?
You should apply through as many green card categories as are available to you. The family-based green card can be upgraded once he becomes a US citizen. You will be able to get and keep the green card through whichever category comes through first.

Got our approvals for EB green cards on July 25, 2008.
Apart from having some trouble in porting my PD to an earlier approved I 140, our case was handled very well. A very big "THANK YOU" to Mathew for all your help and guidance. You were great and very prompt in responding to all my queries.Also my thanks to Heather who did a great job in getting all my paper work together and responding to all my questions.
I had hired the offices of Rajiv Khanna for my GC process. I am happy to inform that I and my wife received our green cards in the mail last evening.
I wanted to thank Amrita,Rita and Bharathi from the bottom of my heart for all the hard work they put in for me during this long process. I specially like to thank Amrita who has patiently talked to me during numerous difficult times during these years. You all are a wonderful team and I am lucky to have had the representation of your firm for my green card process.
Many Many thanks again.
I'd like to thank from the bottom of my heart, Mr. Khanna and his staff Ms. Sheena Gill, for their prompt support and advise and attention to details in my I-140 RFE response and making it possible for me to get through it. I could not imagine how my case would have turned out, without their involvement and timely advise in my case.
Thanks again for all the support and making this happen.
I am in a situation where my current employer has filed PERM and as per the timelines there are high chances that it will be approved till January. And as per immigration team in the current company says it could take a week or two to file for I-140. I am going to pay for premium processing. But at the same time, I have accepted an offer from another company and the start date is 31st January. I am sure that I-140 would not get approved till then. Can I pay for premium processing, leave after they file the I-140 and before it gets approved? Will it go through?
PS: As per company's policies they don't revoke I-140 of the employees if they leave before 6 months.
Theoretically, an I-140 does not require you to be continued to be employed by the petitioning employer. You could leave after applying, but if there is an RFE, the employer would not be motivated to respond to it. As a practical matter, there is a second difficulty as well.

I am on my H-1B and my wife is currently on her H-4. With the new bill does she still need to wait for my I-140 to be approved?
There is no new bill, just a policy clarification. And, yes, she will have to wait per the law.

My GC process was a good experience.
I got prompt service and people were caring. Suman Bhasin and team members did a good job answering all my questions throught the GC process. Mr. Rajiv Khanna too made himself available in his busy schedule once over the phone. Thank you everybody at Law Offices of Rajiv S. Khanna. I appreciate your help!
My pleasant experience in summary and in little detail.
Summary:
People at Law Offices of Rajiv S. Khanna are highly professional, very much detail oriented, easy to work with, very prompt and very nice people. They are always available and will stand up for you when required. This will be a very rare combination to find. They always prepare very convincing case and review the case in detail. I always believed that if my case is accepted by Mr. Rajiv, Mr. Mathew and Co, it will be very hard for anyone to reject the case.
Little in detail:
It all started in October 2005. My company asked me to find a lawyer to represent me for my GC process. I have a good friend/family that got GC thru immigration.com (Mr. Rajiv Khanna handled his case. My friend assured me that Mr. Rajiv would go above and beyond to meet client's needs.). He referred us to immigration.com. I sent a mail to immigration.com. Mr. Suman has contacted me. When my HR wanted to talk to a lawyer, he referred us to Mr. Mathew Chacko. Mr. Mathew explained the process in detail. He was very descriptive and communicated everything very well to us. He is always patience even during his busy days such as 2007 July-Aug crazy time when everything became current. I am fortunate enough to get quick e-mail replies every time. When I had thoughts about Consular Processing, he explained to me all about consular processing and why one should opt for it or should not opt for it. His review on my I-485 are very much helpful.
One of the most memorable moments is this: my wife attended an interview in a company and they had hesitation about hiring her without Green Card. They always thought that the company has to sponsor her GC at some point in time and they were not ready for it. I told them it is not the case since she is a derivative applicant in my GC. They were not ready to buy it. They wanted to talk to my lawyer. When I requested Mr. Mathew, he was ready to talk and convince them. I am not sure if all the lawyers would do this kind of stuff. Thank you very much Mr. Mathew.
Another important player during my GC process is Ms. Richa Narang. She has done an incredible job of completing my PERM application on time that once I thought would nearly be impossible. Considering that we started our process very late in my 5th year, it is highly remarkable. We completed 6 days before my 5th year expired. She went thru the documents over and over, and helped preparing a very convincing case. I am highly impressed with her patience and prompt replies. She is easy to work with. She always let me know what she was doing for my case and why it is done this way. That gives me an idea about what is really going on with my case.
This is in contast with my previous attorney in my previous company. Thank you Ms. Richa.
I have not worked directly with Mr. Rajiv Khanna. But my case manager Ms. Richa was working with him for my PERM. He is a REAL expert in what he does. Mr. Rajiv really built a very strong case for my PERM. His inputs are priceless. I attended his conference call during July/August 2007 when USCIS opened and closed the door briefly. It provided lot of valuable information to me and to lot of immigrants that were eagerly waiting to apply for I-485. It is really a great gesture towards the people that were waiting to apply for I-485 during that time.
Thank you Mr. Rajiv
Others that helped me are Ms. Mohana, Ms. Prena etc. They are all very nice and easy to work with. They made sure my case was built in a convincing manner.
I will definitely comeback to Law Offices of Rajiv S. Khanna for my future immigration needs.
I have referred two of my friends to Immigration.Com so far. They all like the service. Please feel free to contact me. I will be happy to answer any questions about my experience.
My wife received her Permanent Resident card today and mine was approved (and received GC card on August 5, 200 on July 28, 2008. I would like to thank Mathew , Prerna and Bharathi for all the timely answers and advices through the process. Mathew and Prerna were always accessible . I always felt that I am getting best service and I would recommend Mr. Khanna’s team to my friends who need help with GC / immigration.
Thank you
I and my wife received our green card in August 2008. We started the process in November 2005 with Rajiv Khanna as our attorney. He and his team have helped us at every point in the whole process and they were always there for us to help out. I must mention here that the paperwork done was been perfect and I had no RFE and this has substantially reduced the total time of the lengthy process. I found the team in his office in general very co-operative and prompt. Our special thanks and best regards to Heather Crump, Yvonne, Mark, Art and Leslie for making this happen.
Once again thanks to Rajiv and his team.
Got my LCA approved within a few months thanks to the untiring efforts of Mr. Vijay Durgam, my case manager and Mr. Rajiv Khanna. Thank you.
My husband and I got our green card approved this month. It was a long and tedious journey but I always felt confident about having Rajiv Khanna on my side. They are a very professional and efficient Law Firm. I always got replies to my million concerns. The paper work was filed perfectly and we never got any RFE'S. I have used Rajiv and his team for all my immigration work (H1B) and there is nothing but praise for them.
I would like to thank Mathew, Bharathi, Heather, Shubha, & Kumuda for all the help. I will always recommend them to anyone in the immigration process.
Best wishes for continued success.
Hi Rajeev, Vijay, Aruna , Prerna, Bharathi ,
Got Green Card last week(08/200. Although it was a long journey , all of you have made it a pleasant one. I always got a good support , help and information from you .It was flawless service. I highly recommend your services to all.
My wife and I recently got our citizenship case approved. Our case was a fairly complicated case because we were out of the country for 2 years after getting our GC and had returned since then. While every other lawyer we enquired they asked us to wait for 5 years since our return, immigration.com was able to sort our case and file for it much earlier using the 4yr - 1 day rule. I was amazed at the responsiveness from the team at immigration.com. Every time I had a question, they would respond within 24 hours or less and definitely understood the laws surrounding citizenship approval. My special thanks to Mr. Chacko and Mr. Art Shifflett who handled our cases.
Mr.Rajiv Khanna and his team are handling my GC process. I interacted with Rita Dhakal for entire GC process; My Labor and I140 are approved without a issue. I also applied EAD cards renewal (Mr. Khanna Office reminded me) for my wife and me. They were submitted for approval. By looking at the entire process and Mr. Khanna team, I always feel I am getting the best service. Rita is very cooperative, faster response and great knowledge.
I always recommend my friends to Mr. Khanna team.
