I would like to thank Diana, Kumuda, Rita, Mr. Rajiv S Khanna for their services from the bottom of my heart. I always got reply from them so quickly that I cannot imagine. Particularly Diana, She is always faster than me. Mr. khanna,s firm ask less fees than any other law firms I contacted before processing the case. Finally I got my green card within 9 months, which I can not believe. I am extremely grateful to all of them.
I would like to thank my case manager Pramita and Roopa for getting my labor approved in EB2 Category. They prepared my labor certification perfectly and it got approved within a week after they applied my petition.

They had shown keen interest in my case and followed up with my employer with patience to get things done promptly.I once again thankful to the law office of Rajiv Khanna for getting my labor petition approved.

I Had my interview today, in the DO of Atlanta, GA at 10:00. I was really stressed. The officer who called us was a nice young lady in her mid 30's. We took the Oath to tell the truth, she asked for IDS, marriage ceriticate, previous divorce certificate, she asked where my husban worked, she verified our address and phone number. And finally she asked for most recent taxes for my husband and jpint sponsor. We had a bit of a problem with the taxes because we didnt have the most resent tax return/w2 for my joint sponsor or my husband for 2005.
By the end it turned out that we were waaaaay overprepared. We did our final preparations last night, the only thing we were worried about were those 3 months that we didn't live together after we got married so my husband even printed out a calendar and made references to receipts for every single weekend that he went to visit me while I was up in school.
I would like to thank my Case Manager, Subha, Roopa and their team for getting my Labor Certification under EB2 with PERM in 2 1/2 months. I also would like to mention the care they have taken while filling the LC form, which got reviewed many times before applying.
I sincerely recommend their service and quote them as very Professional and Excellent Service.
Thanks to all.
Excellent work done by Rajiv S. Khanna and my case Manager Richa helped me with the process to obtain Labor certification for EB3 category under PERM process. I am sure they will continue the good work all the way to getting my Green Card.
I received my PERM approval in 3 days.
Richa and Mohana has been very co-operative, professional
and prompt throughout the case
Special Thanks to Richa Narang and Mohana Navran for their timely help, valuable legal advise
I strongly recommend their services.
I started my GC processing in November 2005 through Rajiv Khanna’s law firm. He is a lawyer of great standing and has helped me at every point in the whole process. I must mention here that the paperwork done under his guidance has been perfect and I had no inquiries during the process. My PERM labor was approved in 58 days from the date of filing and my I-140 was approved in just 32 days from the date of filing. I found the staff in his office in general and with a special mention of Aruna and Amrita, both of them have been very co-operative. Thanks to rajiv and his staff.
Happy News. That's why I prefer and recommend Rajiv's office to every one. I get always good suggestions and ideas from Rajiv. Eventhough there was big confusion in applying EB2 for my case. Rajiv did a very correct and good decision for my back up case process to file it in EB2. I did not even expect the approval so early. My I 140 got approved in one month and we received the approval on June9th. I had good support from Mathew,Subha,Prerna earlier and now I had the same support and good care from Aruna also. Once again I thank Rajiv and his team for another successful move in my case.
Thanks to Aruna and everyone worked on my case. I got my I140 approval without any RFE. Looking forward to working with Mr. Rajiv Khanna's experienced staff to get my GC.
My wife and I received our GC within 9 months for the whole process with Rajiv S. Khanna as our attorney. I would like to thank Aruna for all her help and being very responsive on my case. Thank you all, it is was a pleasure to work with you. Regards...
I like to thank Pramita and Roopa for their great efforts and works that made my Labor Certificate approved in 1 day.
Hi,
Mine is a long story and will write-up the story in detail when I get a chance. I'm still hoping to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Eventhough, it was Unfortunate that my first labor certificate was denied (for some reasons!!!) which changed my entire career plans (and also changed a lot on the way to file PERM petition after that...) Thanks for Subha and Roopa for their efforts to get my second PERM labor certificate approved in 20 days. So I'm still having little hope with the direction I'm heading towards. I appreciate Rajiv for his courteous nature.
Regards,
Manju
Mr. Khanna's firm and specifically my case manager Mr. Vijay Durgam helped me with the process to obtain Labor certification for EB2 category under PERM process. I am sure they will continue the good work all the way to getting my Green Card.
I have got my H1B extenstion approved for 3 years after my 6th year H1B period in 7 days using the approved I-140 petition. I had my last 3 H1B extensions processed through Mr.Khanna's office and Ursula Escoto prepared the forms three times PERFECTLY and NO RFEs. Thanks SO MUCH to Ursula Escoto. I am greatly pleased with Rajiv and Ursula as far as their professionalism, courtesy and promptness regarding my immigration. THANKS A LOT URSULA...

Question 1:
The husband has a company. Wife and husband are both U.S. citizens, and they want to get her brother over to the United States on some kind of a work related visa. Assuming the husband’s company is small and the brother is professionally qualified can they get him through the husband’s company.
Answer will depend on qualifications of the brother, and what sort of a company that her spouse has. For example: Is the company large or small? How many employees? How long has the company been in business? What kind of work do they do? Does the company have any branches outside of the U.S.?
Answer: If the company's business and the brother’s qualifications are both professionally oriented we could seriously think about an H-1 Visa. If there is a branch outside the U.S., then we could get the brother employed outside the U.S. and think about an L-1 Visa in a year. Also under the new laws, as they are being considered, we should be able to have more options than what I have just discussed. So I am right now I am examining the matter only under the current scheme of laws, and H-1 and L-1 are two obvious options. Of course I am assuming that everybody here is an India born citizen of India because if you are citizen of another country you might have other options like E visa, etc. So bearing this in mind, there are some assumptions I am making and I am also clarifying that I am looking at the current schemes of the laws. Future schemes of the laws might be different and might be much more beneficial for us.
Question 2:
What is the chance of an L-1A Visa holder with nine years of experience qualifying for EB1 category. Can I apply for a Green Card for myself in the EB1 category?
There are three kinds of EB-1's. Let’s start with the EB1 category that is the easiest to understand.
1. Outstanding researchers or professors - given the designation of EB-1-2 or EB-1B.
Under EB-1, the second category is outstanding researchers or professors. Basically we are looking for people who are highly qualified in their own field and there are certain criteria. Look at our website for more information.
http://www.immigration.com/greencard/employment-based-green-cards/emplo…
So one category is for outstanding researchers or professors, for which you need a research or professorial position.
Then there is another category EB-1C or EB-1-3 category for international executives and/or managers. People who are on L-1A can pretty much qualify for EB-1C category. This is another great category.
Then there is the first category, extraordinary ability aliens. This is not for everyone. Here we are looking for sustained national or international recognition. Somebody who is hailed as a leader in their business For example, Bill Gates would qualify, but Rajiv S. Khanna would almost certainly not qualify. So we are looking for people who are nationally and internationally recognized.
So the question asked was can I do it on my own out of these three categories. The only one in which you can apply on your own is the first category EB-1A, which is extraordinary ability aliens. You are nationally or internationally recognized, and you have articles written about you and have international awards. Again there is a list of criteria and you have to meet three out of the ten listed criteria or similar. All this information is on our website as well.
http://www.immigration.com/greencard/eb1-green-card/eb-1-extraordinary-…-
In your situation the best option is to apply for EB-1C if you can get your employer to apply for you since you are already on L-1A getting a EBC green card is absolutely perfect choice and you got your Green Card within a year. EB1 is the fastest way of getting our Green Card.
USCIS is moving the existing online payment for the USCIS Immigrant Fee to its Electronic Immigration System (USCIS ELIS). Customers will soon pay the $165 USCIS Immigrant Fee using USCIS ELIS after they receive their immigrant visa package from the Department of State and before they depart for the United States. USCIS ELIS is easy to use and provides direct access to case status updates. New immigrants will also use USCIS ELIS to file future applications and petitions when they become available in the system.

So I just got back from my interview. I passed!! I know I know but one gets so nervous for no reason, even fully prepared. And it does not help when you see someone coming back from the interview indicating they have not passed (even if others who come out did).
Excellent service. I received my green card approval without any trouble.
