Rajiv, Sirisha, and Anna,
I am extremely happy to inform you that my father's visitor visa has been approved. I just heard from my parents and wanted to share my joy with you. Thanks to all your efforts and the valuable advice of the law
offices, I and my wife are now in a position to enjoy some much-needed family time. The whole process took my parents 9 months and 4 visits to the consulate and finally it is over. It is not known if the approval
is for 6 months or 10 years at this time.
Sirisha, I am greatly thankful to you for working with me closely and professionally looking at every minute detail of this case. You're simply
awesome.
Appreciate all the efforts of the Law Offices of Rajiv Khanna.
Very thorough, extremely efficient, you get the job done, and are patient with regard to questions. All in all, a very smooth process of getting a difficult H-1 application approved
Rajiv S Khanna, Managing Attorney at law firm Immigration.com, said, “Rate of denials have gone up across the board in all legal immigration cases, especially (relating to) H-1B visas. The government has created an environment where the responses for the RFEs have increased from 30-50 pages to 600-1,000 pages for an H-1B case. It has increased its own burden of processing cases and that’s why cases are taking much longer to process than they used to.”
“A STEM-OPT employer must not assign, or otherwise delegate its training responsibilities to a non-employer third party such as the client’s employees,” explains Rajiv Khanna, Managing Attorney at Immigration.com
1. Planning to transfer from H1B to H4, I-140 approved with Jan2015 priority date. Can I keep the priority date after I change to H4? Intend to come back to H1 after few months. 2. Currently I'm 7 months pregnant and I work for a consulting company (employer) on H1B visa, Can I take maternity leave on H1B? If yes, for how long? will it be a paid or unpaid leave? If not do I need to convert status from H1B to H4? If yes, can I change it back to H1B and work again or need to apply for a fresh visa?
Here is an interesting question, if I am on H-1 and I convert to H-4, does that kill or affect my priority date ? Answer is no. If you were on H-1 and you had filed a Green Card, you got a priority date and I-140 was approved now you changed to H-4 that does not kill your priority date. That's not the problem.
And the second part of the question was can I take maternity leave on H-1?

My wife and I received our GC approval notices and got stamps on our passports on August 31, 2004. We are thankful to Mr. Khanna and his team for getting our GC approved. The whole GC process was not smooth but Mr. Khanna was very helpful all along. Whenever we wanted to talk to him for the problems we faced throughout the GC processing, he was always kind enough to spend his valuable time to discuss with us about our case. And finally after three years of struggle we have had happy ending. Again, we would like to thank Mr. Khanna and his staff especially Diane for the good job they have done for our GC process.
