I use to get response to all my question almost immediately. I was confident when I decided to go through Rajiv Khanna for my GC process that every thing will flow smoothly and this confirms it. I highly recommend Mr.Khanna's office and staff for all immigration purposes.
The very next day , when my Labor was certified , I got call from Tarun Sharma whose Handling my I140 case, giving me all the details about I140 process and answering all my questions . This is really great , no waste of time and every things move very fast.
We got our GC approved on June 5th, 2007 and the cards were received within a week. The journey was long with several roadblocks. The expertise of Mathew Chacko did the trick. His commitment to excellence and above par communication always made me feel at ease. I knew a professional is handling the case. The fee was so reasonable. Our earlier attorneys were more interested in prepayments than service. Mathew's knowledge and expertise on immigration matters is remarkable. I would strongly recommend the services of this firm.
I had my first H1 petition and subsequent H1 renewal processed through the Law offices of Rajiv Khanna. I strongly recommend these folks for any immigration related issues as they go about the business in a very professional and sincere way. My case manager for H1 renewal was Mr. Chris Harman and I very much appreciate his quick responses and clarity in responses to multiple questions that I had posed. We are very thankful for all the help and have no doubt will come to your office for any immigration related matters. Please keep up the good work and the excellent website. Best regards.
