Excellent job by Rajiv and co! First I got my I-140 approval within 2 weeks and now I've got my Green card within 9 months of concurrent filing of I-140 and I-486. Thanks to Rajiv and the whole team for their wonderful help. My special thanks are due to Diane, who was instrumental in putting my package together for all her help and for her prompt response to all my queries.
I got my I-140 approval in 15 working days. Wonderful job done by Aruna and Mathew. They are very good in coordinating with employer, clarifying GC related questions during the process.
Thanks to Aruna, Mathew and Rajiv's.
Affected filers have until July 20, 2022, to receive an earlier receipt date
FAQ: EB-3 petition downgrade; CSPA protection for 21 year old son I-485 Green Card final interview process/questions asked, etc. Retaining valid H-1B status while AOS is pending and when to file Supplement J
Release Date
WASHINGTON—The U.S. Department of Homeland Security is seeking data and information from the public that DHS intends to use to develop a public charge regulatory proposal. The purpose of public comment is to ensure that the proposal is fair, consistent with law, and informed by relevant data and evidence. Public comment also will help DHS ensure that the proposed regulation does not impose undue burdens on noncitizens seeking admission to or adjustment of status in the United States.
USCIS recently updated the following USCIS form(s):
1) Most attorneys don't recommend to abandon H1B status while AOS is pending.
What are the chances of AOS denial for someone who has had a clean history and is a law abiding alien living in the US waiting for AOS?
2) What are your thoughts about the timing of filing I-485 J? Upon job change, should it be filed proactively or wait for RFE Won't it delay the AOS adjudication if it's not filed proactively?
I do not think you should let your H-1B or even L-1 lapse just because you have a I-485 pending. There are times when things go wrong with the I-485. So it's such an easy thing to maintain your H-1B.
As far as the I-485 J is concerned, I personally feel that the Adjustment Of Status Supplement J should be filed as quickly as possible as it will give you an additional protection. More...

My son turns 21 years in August, and as per the August Visa Bulletin my EB3 Downgrade petition is current. Does this means my sons is covered under the CSPA and eligible for EAD renewals?
There are two dates based upon which green card applications move one date is the date for filing and the other date is the final action dates. Your CSPA protection is covered by the final action dates; the visa bulletin dates when they become current. Dates for his final action dates must become current before he turns 21, if they slide back again, that's not a problem but for one time they must become current. More...

It was great working with Rajiv, Anna, and Aneet. They addressed all my queries. We went through all the processes, and every week we were updated about the progress and followed a path. The team is not money-minded, so ensured that everything is submitted in a detailed manner. They explain everything why it is done, so you understand it before putting in the effort and money.
5 stars for promptness, availability, quick response, attention to detail, knowledge, and experience.
1) Please list out what are the documents need to be carried for final interview by main applicant and the dependents?
2) What are the general questions we can expect from the officer during the interview who makes decision and how the interview process will be, so we can be aware and prepare ourselves?
1. Always tell the truth.
2. It is okay to say I don't know. Also, if you are struggling to reply you can say I don't remember and always ask for a clarification if something is not clear. More...

I had wonderful experience working with Rajiv and his team. Vikas Varma was very professional and prompt in responding and providing necessary information to me to take the appropriate steps. Rajiv's whole team is very professional and I would recommend to all my friends.
We have a great experience working with Rajiv and his team. Vikas Varma was very professional and thorough. They prepared the RFE response of a very completed case so great that we got the approval of a very tough case. Its really worth the money they charge. We would like to continue using the services of LORK in the future.
I've been working with LORK the last 5 years, and it has always been a pleasure working with them. They've dealt some tough cases for us, and I have immense confidence, when they are handling our cases. Recently, we had our L1 petition approved, and we are very impressed with extent of details covered. It was a pleasure working with Vikas Varma, and LORK's attitude of making sure the employer's reputation is not at stake at the USCIS.
Me and my employer worked with Mr. Khanna's firm for GC process. It took almost 4 years for us to get GC. Solving complex case with care and experience is what we got. Thanks a million to Mr. Khanna, Mathew and all case managers who helped in every way possible. If any of you need to get GC done, please contact Mr. Khanna without any 2nd thought.
He is just the best attorney you can ever work with for all of your immigration needs. God bless him and the entire team.
Q. I am a student graduating in December with my Masters degree. I have an offer from an university. I understand that universities apply for exempt-H1B. I also understand that exempt H1B's cannot be transferred to non-exempt H1B's.
Will I be able to work in the period from April to October 1st with the private company, when my non-exempt H1B is still in process? Will accepting this offer be a problem if i want to move to a private firm later?
I am thinking about applying for green card under EB-1A or EB-1B. Currently I have an approved I-140 (2005, EB2). I have a few questions:
Q.a) Is the EB1A or EB1-B I-140 premium processed?
Q.b) Do I need to submit another set of I-485 with the EB-1 application even though the EB-2 I-485 are pending with USCIS?
Q.c) Which option would be better for me - EB-1A or EB-1B? I am currently an associate professor at XXX University.

If a new start-up IT consulting company wants to transfer H1 of a prospective employee who is already on H1 and working for his current H1 sponsor, what are the issues and feasibility for such a transfer?
How can such a start-up IT consulting company go about hiring AC21 eligible folks on EAD? May this is the safest route in the beginning until the company gets more employees and grows revenue?
Will the AOS of the prospective employee be safe if he is the only employee of this company in the beginning. Of course the company wants to expand in the future but has to start somewhere.

Both me & my wife have EAD and have our full time job. My question is , it is possible for us to start a new LLC ??
I got laid off from work from my present employer on October 31, 2008 and I have 3 questions.
Presently, my employer has sponsored both my H1B (completed initial period of 6 years) and Green Card (EB-2, with priority date 2006). I have filled my I-485 in July 2007 and is currently pending. My I-140 has been approved 2 years ago and my employer promised that he will not revoke it. I have approved EAD & AP both for the primary and dependent.
Quote:
I would like to be on my H1B even with the new employer. To my knowledge we should file a new H1B within a month but due to the market situation if I have to get on to EAD then can I get back to H1B? If yes then with in how many days should I apply for H1B?
