I am very thankful to the staff at Mr. Khanna's office, especially Mathews and Rita. From beginning to end, they were very prompt, co-operative, and very thorough in documents. We used a labor substitution and the entire process went really quick, with no big hassles.

Can I change my profession after getting a Green Card? I received my GC in EB2 as an Accountant. Now, I see the salaries in the software/IT sector to be much higher.
Sure, you can change your profession as long as you did not have a pre-conceived intention to do so before you got your green card. I cannot say that there is any particular time frame attached to it.

I wish to assess my eligibility for the EB-1A category. I have a B.Tech., M.Tech., and Ph.D. from India, and I just finished a postdoc in the USA. I am currently employed in India as an associate professor at a good university.
The following are my credentials.
1. I have over 25 publications in international journals and conferences that have undergone peer review.
2. I review articles for three high-quality journals.
3. I currently have 358 citations.
Just looking at the numbers is not enough. We need to look at the overall resume.

The Law Office of Mr. Khanna is well established in the immigration field and offers excellent services. Their website is a great database regarding the immigration matters.
Special thanks to Ms. Richa Narang and Ms. Prerna Mehta who thoroughly prepared my documents and were always available for answering my questions .
I got my H1B and also GC under PERM.
The entire GC process took less than two years and went smoothly.
