Secretary of Homeland Security Jeh Johnson has extended Haiti’s designation for Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for an additional 18 months. The extended designation is effective Jan. 23, 2016, through July 22, 2017.
My experience with Rajiv's organization has been fantastic. His understanding of the nuances of the immigration laws are highly valued by my organization.
My point of contact was Diane who was a delight to work with. She gave me detailed instructions at each stage and periodically followed up when there was any perceived delay.
I would most readily recommend Immigration to anyone who needs any service related to immigration.

I am a US Citizen residing in the UAE with my Wife and two children. My Wife is a Syrian passport holder. We petitioned her case for residency in the US under I-130. We have received the first notice from the NVC which was on the 24th of June. The letter stated that all documentation necessary to complete the National Visa Center processing of your case has been received, and as soon as an interview date has been scheduled then we will be notified.
How long does it take to receive the second notification with an Interview Date that we are closing on week eight?
Is there a way that you can expedite an Interview Date?
If the answer is Yes, Could we officially request your service?

Hi Loay. Times are highly variable from a few weeks to a few months. Expedites are only granted for showing of some sort of urgent humanitarian situation in cases like yours. We would like to help, but I am not sure we can add much value at this stage. Contact us if there are any issues (other than timing).
How does it work with financial co-sponsorship? Can a family member or a close friend co-sponsor a fiancee?
Anyone who is a US Citizen or green card holder can co-sponsor affidavits of support .
My interview was done on December 11, 2012 For n 400, I passed the test but the officer gave me a letter saying that the decision cannot be made now.. Two days later I received request for evidence letter.. They requested my petition for divorce.. My green card is based on marriage that only lasted two years.. The condition was removed after the divorce.. I sent a copy of the petition for divorce on December 21.. I have not received anything since. Has anyone been asked to provide a certified copy of the petition for divorce before? Please help I am confused.
I just got my GC approved (August 2014). I am very thankful to Rajiv, Matthew and their team for their excellent work. Prerna was very helpful and took utmost care in handling my case.
My current employer is failing the GC. Below is the job requirement. My total experience is with the current employer only (2.5 years in INDIA+4.5 years in USA)<br>
Job requirement:<br>
Education: Master’s degree, or equiv., in computer information systems or related field
Experience: At least 1 year in position offered or in design defect fixes/enhancements
I have US equivalent Master degree. My attorney said for the experience, we can show your current employer INDIA experience(2.5 years for which i worked in India for the same employer and came USA for the same employer).
Can we show current employer India experience while filing PERM?
Generally speaking, you can use the experience gained with an employer who has a tax ID number other than your petitioning employer.
I have worked with Mr. Khanna's law firm over the past 4 years for my Green Card process and the experience has been extremely satisfying ! Everyone that has to go through immigration process knows how stressful the whole situation can be and you need to have a lawyer by your side who puts you at complete ease. Mr. Khanna and his team is very friendly, professional, knowledgeable and outstanding in their service. I appreciate their invaluable advice/legal counsel and their promptness in every matter. The whole team is meticulous, very responsive and it's comforting to know that you have such a great lawyer by your side. I'm glad that I made the right decision in switching to Mr. Khanna's law firm and I strongly recommend them to anyone that needs immigration counsel !

I have worked with Mr. Khanna's law firm over past 3 years for my Green Card renewal. I found the team to be meticulous and very responsive. Recently I am in India and trying to renew my green card. Mr. Khanna's team had no obligation to provide any counsel. They always made themselves available to answer the questions during uncertain times, so that I would any missteps in this often confusing process. I believe Mr. Khanna's law firm offers more than just handling of the legal process. They go above and beyond to create a sense of community and offer a great service to folks dealing with varying immigration circumstances.

I recently got my H1B and all thanks to Rajiv, Judi and Anna. They give personal attention to the case and make sure that no single information is missing before filing the petition to USCIS.I would like to thank Rajiv and his team for such a great work and would strongly recommend their services to anyone. Best Wishes!
A real great experience working with Mr. Rajiv Khanna. Very thorough in his approach and explanining his thoughts in an easy to understand, non-overly legal language. Crisp, precise and friendly, his opinion has been valuable in my preparations in acquiring for a US visa.
