I got the PERM application approved in 10/06/2010 and I applied on August 2nd week. It is really great to work with Rajiv Khanna & Mathew and they will guide us to the right way so that no mistakes are made in the complete process. I really feel that I am in good hands!
The Department has posted new Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) addressing employer point of contact requirements. To view PERM Round 12 FAQs, please check attachment.
According to DOL updates as of 9/30/2010, they are working on PERM application filed in the following months.
My H-1B visa extension and my children's H-4 too were denied due to my two former lawyers' lack of expertise on immigration matters.Then, my Labor certification was denied too. Two of my children eventually had to go home when they reached 21 because of this. I thought my youngest son and I were going to go home too,until my employer contacted Atty Khanna and his associates.They are the best because they were able to fix ad refile everything. We recently received our green card. Everything they did was so organized and very meticulous, making no mistakes.I would highly recommend them to anyone.
My company said they filed the PERM application on June 30th. I asked them to send the status a month ago. The sent me a message saying that it has Prepared status in the application and the overall status as in process. Is it how it looks?
When we check status of electronically filed applications, it should say "In Process" when it is pending. That should be sufficient.
My PERM application just got denied due to the recent layoff in my company. Can I apply EB2 (schedule A) to bypass the labor certification step? Will the recent PERM denial affect the Schedule A application? Is it ok to submit the schedule A application soon or I have to wait for a certain time period?
If you are qualified, you can apply for Schedule A. I cannot think of any way the PERM denial or layoffs could cause any issues and there should be no waiting to file.
Thanks to Richa and Mohana, for your timely and well organised support, I got my PERM Labor Approved within 10 Days!!
I have a lot of experience with the immigration lawyers. This time with Rajiv's office is a WAY different (better) experience:
* immaculate filing preparation - this is not some sloppy paralegal preparing your docs with bunch of misspellings and inaccuracies;
* excellent communication - forget your voice-mails with no responses or the your attorney's email black-hole. Rajiv's teams are fast in response and their answers are clear and focused on what you need to know.
* deadline oriented - with Rajiv S. Khanna's office you KNOW the answer of all your when,where,why and hows....If they commit to date - that is your filing date.You never get nonsense excuses.
* respect - all we know that immigration process is not straigth forward and trivial process. Some times things can get bumpy and you may loose your patience. At this time you need moral support and respect no less then a legal help. Rajiv's team is there for you - your best friend and guide. Actually you become at some point member of the team.
* professional awareness - here I'm going to say just one thing and if you read this you'll understand what I'm talking about. This is the first attorney company that I'm working with and I DO NOT have the feeling that I'm more up to date with the immigration law changes and updates then my attorney.
I know at a time I sound like commercial ad, so let me put some names to my words.
My awes goes to the Mathew and Aruna team. Thank you for the excellent job done so far.
And here is my time-line:
PERM: FD: 8/11/2005 AD: 9/12/2005
EAD AD 10/4/2006
AP AD 10/4/2006
I140 AD 8/5/2006

Khanna and his colleagues (Richa,Mohana) did a great job in getting my labor certifed with in 8 days,I like their personal interest in going through the documents very keenly to cover up pit holes,sending the drafts timely at each stage,followup and more over very honest in giving status about whatz going on with the case.
I can recommend anyone to blindly go ahead and trust this people.i feel blessed by knowing these folks and working with them.YOU WILL HAVE A PEACE OF MIND WORKING WITH THEM.
Thank you everyone in Mr.Khanna’s firm.
Excellent quality service. Immediate e-mails response. Paperwork prepared very well. Mr Khanna is very knowledgeable attorney. Very good representation.
My sincere thanks to Rajiv Khanna and Amrita for their efforts in getting my PERM approved in a remarkable time frame.
My case was a bit complicated. Initially my PERM application got rejected three times over a four week period. The DOL was being quite vague about the reason stating that the alien does not qualify for the job.
However Mr. Khanna's expertise in this matter and dedication of Amrita got my application through, in the fourth attempt,
in a matter of three business days.
Mr.Khanna is very patient and helpful when it comes to dealing with employers. He spoke with my employer several times throughout the process, answered all the
queries that my employer had and helped him understand the perm process.
I really feel that Amrita put her heart in to my case. Amrita was extremely good about acting promptly on the rejection letters
from DOL. My Advertisements were expiring in 3 days from the day the fourth attempt was made. If she hadn't acted quickly i
probably wouldn't have had a chance.
I personally feel that Mr. Khanna's Law office pays close attention to details. They
are also very good about responding promptly to emails, phone calls and clarifying the smallest doubt you may have.
I strongly recommend their services.
My PERM EB2 petition got approved on May 3rd. The amount of attention given to each little detail in the process and their professionalism had given me the confidence that the labor petition would go thru without any snag.
My sincere thanks to Mr. Rajiv Khanna, and especially to Ms. Reecha Nareng and Ms. Mohana Navran. I appreciate your help and hard work you have put in on my application. You were always prompt and responsive and very helpful.
Thanks

I would like to thank Amrita, Seema for the effort they put in to get my labor approved in 5 working days. Great work!!!
I worked with Ms.Richa and Ms.Mohana. Mr. Rajiv is my attorney.
They have done an incredible job of completing my PERM in time which once I thought would be nearly impossible. We started our process very late in my 5th year.
I am highly impressed with their patience and prompt replies. I highly appreciate them. I found both of them easy to work with. They went thru the documents over and over, and prepared very convincing case.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH TO EVERYONE.
Thanks

I would like to thank Mr. Vijay Durgam and Ms. Pramita for all the efforts they put in to get my labor approved in 7 working days. Good work !
I got my PERM labor certified in 8 working days. Excellent job Richa and Mohana. Thank you SO MUCH for all your prompt responses and very high availability whenever I have a question throughout my PERM application process.
What a fantastic service for the money we spent. Your firm should be proud to have you as employees.
"When I join Rajiv Khanna and speak to Amrita about green card process somehow i got feeling that I am in good hand for green card". It is really nice to work with Rajiv Khanna's Law Office and people who works there. Specially Amrita whom I am working with my green card process. She gives really good response, explanation on the phone and email and give enough time to discuss questions and issues that I have. She does conference with Rajiv Khanna when needed for discussion. I have got my PERM approved in this process. It is really nice experience while working with them. They go through case very deeply and discuss pros and cons with us so you get better picture. Thanks for all you do Vishalkumar Patel
