I would like to thank and appreciate the help and dedication showed by Rajivji, Sumanji, Mathewji, Richaji, Prernaji and Vaniji for their tireless support and excellent suggestions during the whole green card processing, SPECIALLY during I-485 filling.
May God Bless You All!
Thanks and regard,

Excellent work and service from Rajivji's team:
My case reached the NSC on Aug 6, first of all I have to thank Richa, Prerna, Rita and Mathew who called me periodically to followup regarding my I-485 filing and also reviewed my documents without any delay. Turnover time was 2 days which is excellent and we cannot expect better service than this and I whole heartedly thank Rajivji and his team.
Hi Rajiv,
Thank you very much to you and to your wonderful team for helping me out. Pramita was my case manager for Labor application and I could not have asked for more. She helped me so much in all aspects of my processing and was very very prompt to respond to any queries. Tarun worked on my I-140/I-485 and he was very efficient and very helpful. Everytime I called Mathew, he answered all my questions patiently and precisely. Team was simply superb !
THANKS very much for all the good work and help
You guys are the best !
Amirta and Rita were so helpful in filing my case on time under pressure. They both are very proactive and very high quality of work!!!
RFE In short:
1.Petitioner’s employee-employer relationship with the beneficiary which may include
- Contracts or letter from end-client.
- An itinerary with name, address and duration of work.
- Certified planning documents from County showing the Business is in Commercial Lot
- Documentary example of petitioner’s products or service.
- H1-B employees routinely met conditions of employment, including work
hours and invoices etc
-Petitioner works on Speciality Occupation mentioned in the labor
We received an RFE for evidences from end client. Anna and Rajiv submitted all the needed documents to USCIS and after a week, we got an email from Anna Baker saying that, USCIS approved my H-1 application with the I-94 attached to it, as well as the H-4's for his dependents.
On reading the message I was so excited as It has been a struggle for all 4 months with RFE for 8th year extension. Anna and Rajiv sincerely worked on the case to make it successful. Especially with complications in my cases, as there were vendor layers involved to the end client, atleast 30 to 40 people from my parent company, vendors and end client including Rajivs staff were directly or indirectly involved at each step of scrutiny on my documents and they all deserve my thanks too. Special Credits to Anna and Rajiv as they did a Great Job. Hurrah!!!!!!!!

Richa Narang was handling my case and did an excellent job. My labor certification was denied just few days before one of the paper ad expired. It was denied because my employer did not respond to the questionnaire sent from USDOL. Based on Richa's advise we were able to give an ad within next couple of days. She also find that my wage was expired just before refiling. She talked to concerned people and got one for me just few minutes before their COB that day (next day was a national holiday) and refiled successfully late in that evening. And my labor certification was approved within next few days. I had been waiting for several years to hear this news in this country.
I really appreciate and thank Richa and her team for this excellent work.
