EB-1A Directly from India and Green Card
I am from India and holding an Indian passport. I work for a IT company. I manage around 250 members.
One of the agencies are tied up with another EB-1 and EB-2 processing agency in USA and informed me that they can help in processing EB1-A visa (Self Petition).<br>
My questions are:<br>
1. Is there a category of Visa as EB1-A?<br>
2. If so, is there a possibility for self - petition? i.e. without an employer?<br>
3. If I file EB1-A, what is the waiting period? Approximate is adequate.<br>
4. Once I get the EB1-A visa, can I self apply for Green card or should there be an employer assisting to file for Green card?<br>
5. If I apply for Green card on an EB1 A, how long generally with it take?<br>
1. Yes. See: http://www.immigration.com/greencard/eb1-green-card/eb-1-extraordinary-…-
2. Yes, self petition is possible under EB-1A.
3. Usually, it takes appx a year for the whole process.
4. EB-1A IS a green card category. Nothing else is needed.

We take this opportunity to express our sincere thanks to Mr. Rajiv S. Khanna & his wonderful staff for working on our Employment Based Green Card processing.
Our Green Cards are approved on Jun 21, 2004 (Both mine & my wife's cases approved). Rajiv's office had shown excellent professional quality and was keen on keeping warm client relationship throughout the GC processing. The service was always courteous, professional and prompt. They were very prompt in responding to Service Center as well as responding to our queries. Any time I was able to contact the staff and they have given us a feeling that we are talking to some of our friends. They were really prompt in answering either by email or phone. We would like to thank Leila, Dian, Suman, Pooja & Mathew for their great job done for us. I will definitely recommend the Law firm of Rajiv S. Khanna to my friends and whoever ask for an opinion.
We wish all the best to Rajiv and his staff for their current efforts to make the GC processing more efficient from Govt.'s side. May God bless you All.
