I processed my I-140 and I-485 through Law office of Rajiv S. Khanna. I am glad I transferred my case from other attorney who I had lot of problems with processing my Labor. I received great service in applying, responding to RFE and clarifying my doubts. I would like to thank and appreciate the work of Tarun and Mathew. I would strongly recommend to my friends or anybody to use the service of "Law Offices of Rajiv S. Khanna"

Law Office of Rajiv S. Khanna, PC is REALLY a good immigration firm.
Initially, I doubted this firm because I can not believe its price is only one-third of the fee my friends paid for their cases.
But the staff's work make me comfortable, they actually guide me step by step. No-misleading, always answer my strange questions, provide appropriate suggestions, double-check everything before file out, give me advance notice of next step, etc.
I would strongly recommend this firm for people who is planning to apply his GC, especially in EB category & IT field.

Finally me and my wife received our greencard after 5.5 years.
I would like to thank you Rajiv & his team in helping me to achieve permanent status. Rajiv and his firm really helped me getting my greencard, at one point my I-140 is on verge of denial status, Rajiv and his firm helped me out this situation. Once again I would like to thank Rajiv.

With the excellent documentation work from this team, dream becomes true and H1B transfer approved with out RFE in just 4 days. This team reviewed all the documents line by line and made necessary changes, this is something new and unique, have not seen with any attorney so far. Kudos to the team.
Special thanks to Bharathi for taking our calls and queries at all times.
Highly professional team, with excellent support to the customers. I strongly and Highly recommend this team for all your immigration needs.
