Thanks: For expertly filing(case handled by Vijay Durgam)my LC application. Approved cleanly in 2 years.!!!! March 05 to Feb 07
My and my wife's I-485 has been approved last week (PD 07/2005) without any RFE. I'd like to express my thanks to Rajiv Khanna's office for making my PR finally come true.
I used Rajiv Khanna team services in 1998-2000 to process several H1 and GC cases for my employees in Indus Corporation, and received very good and professional services. I would recommend their services without any hesitation
Khanna's firm did a thorough, expeditious job of the recruitment and coaching my company's HR dept - specifically, Vijay Durgam who was the case worker on my file. I got approval in less than 20 days. Thanks!
Thanks to Leila for doing a wonderful follow upon RFE for the EAD. I got my EAD approved very soon after an RFE was issued.
Renna Waddell has done an excellent work in getting my H1-B approved.I have opted for preminum processing and i got approved in 3 days. Thanks Sudhakar
Mr Khanna and his team were extremely focused and helpful in me getting my GC. They have demostrated extreme dedication, follow up and provided quality service when mattered. Mr. Khanna was available to me personally when I had to talk to him. I couldn't be more happier for employing the immigration services of Mr. Khanna. They know the importance of their service and commitment and they realize that it can make or break lives.
I have recieved the extension approval of my H1B for myself and H4B for my family. The service and the quality of legal services I received from this law firm was very satisfactory.I would recommend this firm to anyone seeking legal services for immigration related matters.My special and sincere thanks for Rena Waddel who was taking care of my case and for Mr. Khanna.
The office has given the good support on completing the case till the end of the approval. They have done very good job in applying the AC-21 rule to our case and it worked well. Thank you very much for all the support
My wife and I received our GC within 30 months for the whole process with Rajiv S. Khanna as our attorney. Rajiv's team helped us at every point in the whole process. We never get any problem or incompletion about the paperwork done under his guidance, which has been perfect. Perfect paperwork reduces the total time of this lengthy process. We are greatly thankful to Diane Lombardo, who is always available and is happy to responds calmly and peacefully. Also many, many thanks to Diane, Subha, Vijay, Leila, Suman, Lakshmi, Shivani and other staff members who are very co-operative and would return calls & e-mails promptly. In short Rajiv and his staff made the whole process very smooth. We are greatly pleased with Rajiv and his staff as far as their professionalism, courtesy and promptness regarding my GC. I recommonded Rajiv's firm to lot of my friends. We are thankful to Rajiv and his staff.
My wife is on TN (expiry date : Oct/2019) and my two kids are on her TN as TD visa holders (expiry date : Oct/2019).
I am on TN Visa (expiry date : Apr/2019) and my perm just got approved and am in the process of simultaneously activating my earlier inactivated H1B visa and filing the I-140 with the hope after few months down I will be with an approved I-140 and H1B.
My wife wants to stay on TN (kids on TD) as long as possible because the employer doesn't want to sponsor H1B and moving to H4 EAD doesn't look like a smart option now due to uncertainty surrounding H4-EAD's.

I have read that in some cases of H1B as follows "They had H1 petition and H1B visa was stamped in 2012 but they never traveled to the US on that. And when a new employer applied for a cap-exempt H1B petition in 2017 they got it approved with change of status to H1 in May 2017...Whereas in my case I also didn't use this H1B visa and I even didn't travel to US i.e. My employer filed H1B in 2016 which got approved in Sep 2016 and after my resignation, they revoked H1B in Nov 2016 (which is > OCt, 1 2016), but I got a Denial. When contacted few attorneys they said I may get "Approvals" Or "Deny" in such cases, nowadays its more of details saying I am NOT cap exempt?
The first principle is if you are in the United States and you do not get a change of status you are not exempt from the quota. The second principle is if you are outside the USA and you don't get a visa stamp you are not exempt from the quota. Now in both these cases whether you join the job or not is irrelevant. So the third principle is whether you are joining the job or not is irrelevant.
If you are in your home country you must get a visa stamp if you don't, you are not exempt from the quota. If you are in the USA you must get a change of status otherwise you are not exempt from the quota. Hence principal number four is that if your approved H-1 is revoked before October 1st then you are still subject to the quota and the last principle is if your H-1 is revoked for error or for fraud or misrepresentation you are still subject to the quota.
I started my GC process in March 2003 in EB2 RIR.Got LC and now I-140 approved(within 4 working days).Would like to sincerely thank Subha,Mathew,Tarun and Roopa for diligently working on my case.
I'm really happy that I choose Rajiv Khanna's firm for my GC.
