I'm really happy that I choose Rajiv Khanna's firm for my GC.
Thanks: For expertly filing(case handled by Vijay Durgam)my LC application. Approved cleanly in 2 years.!!!! March 05 to Feb 07
My and my wife's I-485 has been approved last week (PD 07/2005) without any RFE. I'd like to express my thanks to Rajiv Khanna's office for making my PR finally come true.
I used Rajiv Khanna team services in 1998-2000 to process several H1 and GC cases for my employees in Indus Corporation, and received very good and professional services. I would recommend their services without any hesitation
Khanna's firm did a thorough, expeditious job of the recruitment and coaching my company's HR dept - specifically, Vijay Durgam who was the case worker on my file. I got approval in less than 20 days. Thanks!

Re-Designation Allows Additional Eligible Syrians to Apply
Release Date
Effective March 18, USCIS has updated policy guidance in the USCIS Policy Manual (PDF, 362.73 KB) regarding the Special Immigrant Juvenile (SIJ) classification based on the settlement agreement resulting from the Saravia v. Barr class action lawsuit.
1. I have employment based green card and is expiring on 03/12/22.I am not employed now. Do I need to be on job at the time of renewal.
2. Can I renew my card or apply for citizenship which is better or do both. Can job be any kind (can be non-related job) or same job.
3. How long one can stay out of country, heard it is not more than 1 year. If I could not return to US and my GC expires, does it treated as abandoned.(it is expiring in a year)
1. No.
2. You can actually do both.
3. The basic idea is if you leave the United States for less than six months at one go usually you are okay, you are not questioned too closely, but more than six months they question you very closely because of certain technical reasons.
At one year outside you lose your green card automatically unless you have something like a re-entry permit. If on the other hand, you are a U.S citizen there is no requirement that you have to stay in the United States. You can stay anywhere in the world, never have to come back again and you would still be a U.S citizen.

I work in the HR department at an IT consulting firm. We needed to get an employee on board to begin a project, but first needed to transfer his visa. Dan and Anna helped make the process extremely smooth, not to mention quick. It was a pleasure to work with both of them.
