On Oct. 11, USCIS issued three adopted Administrative Appeals Office decisions to clarify requirements for Special Immigrant Juvenile (SIJ) classification.
USCIS issued a policy guidance (PDF, 382 KB) explaining how USCIS applies Matter of Stockwell and clarifying when USCIS may adjust the status of an alien whose Conditional Permanent Resident (CPR) status has been terminated.
Working with Mr. Rajiv Khanna and Diane was very smooth and professional. I worked with them for L1 A visa and my experience working with them was awesome.
On one hand, while Mr. Khanna was available to personally assist whenever required, Diane on the other hand was very prompt with her communication and was even available outside the regular working hours to attend to my queries.
Their knowledge and help resulted in getting my I797 petition approved without any RFE and eventually post interview get my visa approved.
Would like to sincerely thank Mr. Rajeev Khanna and the entire team for their services.
BEST LAW FIRM IN US FOR IMMIGRATION CASES -
I am working with Rajiv's office for past several years now. Rajiv's office handles my several H1 extensions and got me approval without RFE.
I filed my I-485 through Rajiv's office. There was government error which was impacting the processing of my case and it was put on administrative closure. Rajeev's office (Rajiv, Art and Heather) guided me to get through the problem and got the file re-opened in fastest way possible.
Both me and my wife like his no nonsense approach to the problem.
I believe Rajiv the best immigration lawyer one can work with.
I found working with Mr. Khanna and his team to be a pleasant experience. I changed my status from F1 to a Religious worker visa. I was very anxious during this process but I was at peace knowing that the people who were helping me through this process were able and competent professionals. Mr. Khanna was every personable and was eager to clarify all my questions. Also, Mr. Khanna contacted my employer on several occasions in order to explain the legalities involved in filing for the Religious worker visa, for this was the first time my employer had hired a foreign national. I would also like to express my thanks and appreciation to Ms. Anna Baker, who was my primary contact at the Law Offices of Rajiv Khanna.

This morning, I was working on explaining to a client (whom I respect greatly), one of the foremost musicians from India, how EB1 (Extraordinary Ability) category applies to musicians and performers. As I was sending him the basic information on EB1 category, I thought I will share the general criteria with all of you. This information is for EA, generally and applies to all fields - not just music. See attached.
Regards to all. Rajiv.

Quotes and Excerpts from Rajiv in the article:
Rajiv Khanna, Managing Partner at Immigration.com told TOI, “For L-1B, under the statute, the beneficiary (proposed visa holder) is deemed to have specialised knowledge if he or she has ‘special’ knowledge of the company’s product and its application in international markets. An ‘advanced’ knowledge of the processes and procedures of the company also qualify.”
