After a painfully agonizing wait of 3 1/2 years, I finally got my labor certification approved. Rajiv's team did a fantastic job in filing my labor certification application. The whole process was executed in a very professional and timely manner and I never received any queries or RFEs. Rajiv's team kept me posted through out the certification phase and he personally took charge when there was a need to amend my petition due to a promotion that caused a change in my job description. The result - the amendment process could not gone smoother.
Without doubt, Rajiv and his team are the best in the field of immigration law - a fact proven by his 100% success rate. Thank you Rajiv.
My family and I received our GC on August 2005.
I started the whole process in April 2005 with Rajiv Khanna as my attorney. He is an efficient lawyer of great standing and he has done an excellent job at every point in the whole process. I must mention here that the paperwork done under his guidance has been perfect. This substantially reduced the total time of this lengthy process and we received our GC in record time without any problem. I am specifically mentioning this because I have seen some of my friends they haven’t got their GC yet because of improper paperwork. I found the staff in his office very co-operative and with a special mention of Diane Lombardo she is very efficient and one of the best paralegal he has.
Thanks to Diane, Rajiv Khanna and his staff for the excellent job.
People can contact me as a reference.
Finally, got my green card. Thanks for all the extra effort and personalized attention that your firm provided. I have dealt with some big law firms before but unfortunately I have to tell them some things which they never heard of. Sometime I thought I have better knowledge of their profession, because my desire of getting green card forced me to learn more about the process. The promptness of the response that you provided while I was in India was really amazing. Your colleague set up me on phone call with you the very next morning.
I will be short of words to appreciate your colleagues. Special Thanks to Mathew Chackoo, he is incredible. He made extra efforts to help me out. Contacting my employer from time to time, responding to my calls promptly. His personalized attention is highly appreciated.
Thanks to all your team members for helping me getting through this long process. I have always recommended your services to my friends. Feel free to use my name as reference.
I am 19 years old and I have been living in this country for 14 years. Due to my status I am struggling in college. I cannot pay my tuition and I am forced to work full time. I have a 3.8 GPA but no scholarship or loans to show for it. My goal is to become a doctor. I volunteer countless hours at hospitals because I enjoy helping people and I love being around doctors. Although many students get paid to work in laboratories and conduct research, I do it for free because I am not a permanent resident or a citizen.

hi all,
i think my experience might help others so i m writing it down.
my husband and i came to toronto canada on sep, 6th 2005 (yes 2 days ago).
we had our interview appointment on sep, 7 9:00 am.
my husband came to US from pakistan in 1999 on a student visa. He did his masters and then got a job in Houston. He is a mechanical enigineer.
we got married in 2002 and got our first H1 stamped from islamabad, pakistan.
The Immigrant Visa looks like a H1B1 visa stamp but the information is obviously different. The embassy also hands out a packet with top right part perforated. It has a white paper on the front which has your picture and information on it.
I landed at Chicago O'Hare airport at about 3:15 PM. While in the plane, I had filled only the customs forms and not the I-94 white form. After landing, I went to the New Immigrant line. The officer looked at the IV and took the packet from me. He sent me to the NSEERS special registration line.

Quotes and Excerpts from Rajiv in the article:
However, immigration lawyers pointed out that this would be useful only for as long as your status was valid. "For most of the H-4 holders who file for these extensions, their status is expiring at the same time as their EAD, and they would not benefit from this," said Rajiv S Khanna, Managing Partner at immigration.com.

We are grateful to Mr.Rajiv Khanna ji , Kalpana ji and the team that worked on our son's fiancée's K-1 Visa .
The support and guidance through the process was very professional. They worked directly with my son and his fiancée who joins him next week as she received her Visa successfully. They were gracious enough to work with us patiently and help us through our mistakes while giving them the required information to file his case.
We would recommend them to anyone who needs help with Immigration. They are definitely experts and they work with you on your issues and the end result is a positive one. Our experience working with them was very pleasant and positive.
Thank you Rajivji and Kalpanaji
The attorneys were very patient and helpful throughout my K-1 visa journey right from the start of filling forms, gathering evidence of relationship till the visa interview. The whole process took more than 15 months because of COVID. Mr. Rajiv Khanna and Ms. Kalpana Panuganti answered all my queries and gave me confidence throughout the journey. The wait was worth it at the end and it wouldn’t have gone as smoothly without the guidance of this firm! Thank you for patiently guiding us through it all!

Hello Sir, I was in usa on j1 till recently and am in india going for h4 visa interview for the first time in June based on my spouse h1 (she has valid i797 and expired visa). She is now traveling to india next week due to family related issues and has to book visa dropbox slot and got one in October. Can I attend the interview in June while she is in india and waiting for her visa dropbox slot which is in October? Thank you very much.
I am not aware of any law that prohibits attending H-4 visa stamping before H-1 visa stamping. Your spouse has an H-1B approval. But the consulate can ask you to wait till the H-1B visa approval. Email the consulate to check how they would want you to approach this.

I have an approved I-797 from my current employer. I am currently in India with a H1B Visa expired in 2018 (I travelled to US in Feb '17 and stayed till June '17) from my previous employer. While scheduling an appointment for a visa interview for me, my wife and my 2 year old toddler, it was shown that we are eligible for VISA interview waiver. My wife has an Expired H4 VISA in 2018, so she was also eligible for dropbox. My question is, will my toddler have any problem with getting a H4 since he doesn't have any VISA stamped in his passport, if we schedule the same dropbox date as neither me nor my wife has a valid VISA? should I book my appointment first and after I get my VISA should I book one for my wife and toddler ? Please advise as I do not want to risk a H4 rejection for my toddler
Check the website of the US consulate where you're going for the procedures. To the best of my remembrance, children under 14 are not required to be interviewed.

Hi Sir, I have the H1B Extension approved and its valid till 03/2025. However, the H4 extension is still pending for my wife and son. I heard, even though the H4 extension is pending and H1 Extension is approved, dependents can get the stamping by referring to H1 Extension approval. Could you please clarify and if this is fine; let me know the process. Note: For personal reasons; my Wife and Son need to travel to India in June and they are planning to come back in October (Current stamping is valid 22nd Oct 2022)
H-4 visa stamping does not require any H-4 approval from the USCIS. The H-4 visa is approved based upon the H-1B approval.

I thank Rajiv and his staff, especially Hellen Anchillo, Richa Narang, and Suman Bhasin, for their help in getting me through the GC process. It is clear Rajiv's office has the whole process nail down and they were very prompt in answering my questions. I always felt I was knowledgeable of my options and the costs and benefits involved in each course of action. I have recommended Rajiv's office to some friends and I will continue to do so in the future.
