I am quite satisfied with the quality of legal services I received from this law firm and would recommend this firm to anyone seeking legal services for immigration related matters.
The team members of Law offices of Rajiv S.Khanna have done a very good job in getting my green card processing (in a very short span). They are very prompt and professional. I would highly recommend them for any kind of GC processings.
I thank Rajiv and his staff, especially Hellen Anchillo, Richa Narang, and Suman Bhasin, for their help in getting me through the GC process. It is clear Rajiv's office has the whole process nail down and they were very prompt in answering my questions. I always felt I was knowledgeable of my options and the costs and benefits involved in each course of action. I have recommended Rajiv's office to some friends and I will continue to do so in the future.
After a painfully agonizing wait of 3 1/2 years, I finally got my labor certification approved. Rajiv's team did a fantastic job in filing my labor certification application. The whole process was executed in a very professional and timely manner and I never received any queries or RFEs. Rajiv's team kept me posted through out the certification phase and he personally took charge when there was a need to amend my petition due to a promotion that caused a change in my job description. The result - the amendment process could not gone smoother.
Without doubt, Rajiv and his team are the best in the field of immigration law - a fact proven by his 100% success rate. Thank you Rajiv.
My family and I received our GC on August 2005.
I started the whole process in April 2005 with Rajiv Khanna as my attorney. He is an efficient lawyer of great standing and he has done an excellent job at every point in the whole process. I must mention here that the paperwork done under his guidance has been perfect. This substantially reduced the total time of this lengthy process and we received our GC in record time without any problem. I am specifically mentioning this because I have seen some of my friends they haven’t got their GC yet because of improper paperwork. I found the staff in his office very co-operative and with a special mention of Diane Lombardo she is very efficient and one of the best paralegal he has.
Thanks to Diane, Rajiv Khanna and his staff for the excellent job.
People can contact me as a reference.
Finally, got my green card. Thanks for all the extra effort and personalized attention that your firm provided. I have dealt with some big law firms before but unfortunately I have to tell them some things which they never heard of. Sometime I thought I have better knowledge of their profession, because my desire of getting green card forced me to learn more about the process. The promptness of the response that you provided while I was in India was really amazing. Your colleague set up me on phone call with you the very next morning.
I will be short of words to appreciate your colleagues. Special Thanks to Mathew Chackoo, he is incredible. He made extra efforts to help me out. Contacting my employer from time to time, responding to my calls promptly. His personalized attention is highly appreciated.
Thanks to all your team members for helping me getting through this long process. I have always recommended your services to my friends. Feel free to use my name as reference.
I am 19 years old and I have been living in this country for 14 years. Due to my status I am struggling in college. I cannot pay my tuition and I am forced to work full time. I have a 3.8 GPA but no scholarship or loans to show for it. My goal is to become a doctor. I volunteer countless hours at hospitals because I enjoy helping people and I love being around doctors. Although many students get paid to work in laboratories and conduct research, I do it for free because I am not a permanent resident or a citizen.

hi all,
i think my experience might help others so i m writing it down.
my husband and i came to toronto canada on sep, 6th 2005 (yes 2 days ago).
we had our interview appointment on sep, 7 9:00 am.
my husband came to US from pakistan in 1999 on a student visa. He did his masters and then got a job in Houston. He is a mechanical enigineer.
we got married in 2002 and got our first H1 stamped from islamabad, pakistan.
The Immigrant Visa looks like a H1B1 visa stamp but the information is obviously different. The embassy also hands out a packet with top right part perforated. It has a white paper on the front which has your picture and information on it.
I landed at Chicago O'Hare airport at about 3:15 PM. While in the plane, I had filled only the customs forms and not the I-94 white form. After landing, I went to the New Immigrant line. The officer looked at the IV and took the packet from me. He sent me to the NSEERS special registration line.
USCIS recently updated the following form(s):
Form I-129, Petition for a Nonimmigrant Worker
05/31/2022 04:01 PM EDT
We are thankful to Mr.Rajiv Khanna, Seema Sharma and the team that worked on our Green Card. This entire process they have been supported and gave best directions and suggestions, answered all of our questions. We would like to shout out special thanks to Seema for her help and support. Our experience working with them was very pleasant and positive. Thank you :).

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.

I transferred my H-1 to new company but my child still holds the old H4 which has validity till 2023 2023 March. Will he be able to use that H4 to get stamped while going to India now.
H-4 visa is not tied to your employer. Your change of employer does not affect a valid H-4 approval or visa.

I have an H1-B/ I-140 question for you and your team. Please see below: I came to India in 2019 to get my H1 stamped along with my family and got stuck. I got a 221(g), and RFE during the process but my employer got things sorted out. Then my employer also amended my petition and I re-appeared for visa stamping interview and got stuck again due to an ‘end client’ issue. Then Covid made things worse in 2020. Questions for your team: I have an approved I-140 with my old firm (on Eb-2) with a priority date of Jan 29, 2014. I am not on a US payroll since I came to India (in 2019) & my last approved petition also expired in Jan 2022. If a new firm had to take over my H1-B case can I re-capture the unused time (time stuck in India for almost 3 years) beyond my first 6 years of H1-B with this new firm/petitioner ? If so, can I port my old I-140 (& old priority date) to the new H1 petitioner after coming to US? What is the porting time frame after coming to US? Is Premium processing available for porting old I-140 (& priority date) to the new employer? Since my priority date is current, I wanted to know if my new employer can file for AOS upon my arrival in the US. Your help and feedback on the above matter will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Q. Can I re-capture the unused time (time stuck in India for almost 3 years) beyond my first 6 years of H1-B with this new firm/petitioner?

I am on a O1-A visa for 3+ years. I am looking to file my EB1-A. 1. I have published and authored journal publications 2. Also, I have peer reviewed journal/conference papers. Following is the link to my google scholar : https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=2OnK284AAAAJ&hl=en Please could you provide a feedback on my chances on EB1-A approval?
Rohit ji, if we have not already spoken, please email me your resume to help at immigration dot com. We do not charge for resume reviews. Usually, an O-1 is a good sign that you may qualify for an EB-1A or an EB-1B.

Finally day has come. Our passport has been stamped at Cleveland OH on 03/20/2003. This was real long and painful journey but Mr. Rajiv Khanna and his team made it REAL SIMPLE and PLEASANT. The whole GC process started in October 2000 when I called Mr Khanna. I talked with Richa Narang as she started paper work for LABOUR certification. She gave me very valuable tip on how to put my resume online and how to post advertisement in local news paper. Once my Labour was filed I talked with Puja and ask her to start my I140 paper work. I had real trouble in getting financial statement from my company. Puja and Mr Khanna helped me big time by convincing my company. Puja did great job and my paper work was ready before my Labour was done and she filed my I140 same day I got my Labour. That resulted in saving of atleast 1 month. Puja was so good in communication and responding my emails and phone calls I asked her to prepare my I485 documents. She gave me Diane Lombardo's phone number. I talked with Diane and she prepared my I485 documents. Diane is best person you can ever get for I485. She has always replied my emails within 2-3 hours even on weekends. Service she provided was so EXCELLENT that one can only dream of getting these kind of service from any attorney's office. Documentation all these team provided was so good there was no scope of any RFE. I have seen my friends still suffering from mistakes from their attorneys in preparing documents. They started process before me and they are still waiting. I talked with Leila so many times for my status check, finger printing, RFE response. She was always fast in comunicating back. Always happy to respond and most imp available on phone when you call. Another very important person from start to finish, Suman Bhasin. I have talked to her so many times during entire process. Always very polite and highly respectable. She gave me solution to every problem I had. Finally when my case was approved call from Homa on what should I do till I get my Citizenship. Lastly Mr. Khanna for all the help. He always gave me solution to every question, gave me best possible advice on chossing right path for entire process like R/R VS NON R/R. Consular processing VS I485 filing. Every piece of advice and service he gave was best any attorney can give. I don't even have words to thank all of you. You all helped like one big family members. Your team is best in the world for immigration matters. Your team provides warm fussy feeling to all those Indians who come so far after leaving their country and family. May GOD bless you and your TEAM with the BEST of the WISHES so that a LOT many souls like us, can see their DREAMS come TRUE. I am eagerly looking forward to working with you in the future. I will highly recommand Mr. Rajiv Khanna and his team to all of you. Thanks SAMIR SHAH
