I did three year bachelor of computer science degree from India in June 2005.Then I joined master of computer Applications program (M.C.A) in India in Aug 2005 (3 year program). While still being enrolled in masters degree program, I joined a full time job in a software company in Jan 2006. I was awarded master of computer applications(3 year degree)in 2008, until dec 2010 (5 years) I worked with the same company in a full time job. after i moved to us. Now I am working with US based company from 7 months as a full time employee.(total experience 5 years 7 months).Do I qualify for EB-2.
You qualify.
I have a brother here in US who is diagnosed with cancer. I would like my mom and brother who live in India to come and visit him. What type of visa should they apply for in India and how long will it take? On which visa can they come as soon as possible.
Tourist visa seems to be appropriate. Times vary by consulate and are usually very short -- often visa is issued the same day an application is made. You can also get an appointment for emergent reasons.

Telecon Recap: Application Processing Times: A Conversation with USCIS Office of Performance and Quality
Overview
On April 27, 2011, the Citizenship and Immigration Services Ombudsman’s Office (Ombudsman’s Office) hosted a public teleconference regarding U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) processing times and interviewed Mr. Joseph Moore, Chief of the USCIS Office of Performance and Quality (OPQ), for this conversation.
Mr. Moore provided a brief overview of the functions of OPQ, as summarized below:
Affected filers have until July 20, 2022, to receive an earlier receipt date
FAQ: EB-3 petition downgrade; CSPA protection for 21 year old son I-485 Green Card final interview process/questions asked, etc. Retaining valid H-1B status while AOS is pending and when to file Supplement J
Release Date
WASHINGTON—The U.S. Department of Homeland Security is seeking data and information from the public that DHS intends to use to develop a public charge regulatory proposal. The purpose of public comment is to ensure that the proposal is fair, consistent with law, and informed by relevant data and evidence. Public comment also will help DHS ensure that the proposed regulation does not impose undue burdens on noncitizens seeking admission to or adjustment of status in the United States.
USCIS recently updated the following USCIS form(s):
1) Most attorneys don't recommend to abandon H1B status while AOS is pending.
What are the chances of AOS denial for someone who has had a clean history and is a law abiding alien living in the US waiting for AOS?
2) What are your thoughts about the timing of filing I-485 J? Upon job change, should it be filed proactively or wait for RFE Won't it delay the AOS adjudication if it's not filed proactively?
I do not think you should let your H-1B or even L-1 lapse just because you have a I-485 pending. There are times when things go wrong with the I-485. So it's such an easy thing to maintain your H-1B.
As far as the I-485 J is concerned, I personally feel that the Adjustment Of Status Supplement J should be filed as quickly as possible as it will give you an additional protection. More...

My son turns 21 years in August, and as per the August Visa Bulletin my EB3 Downgrade petition is current. Does this means my sons is covered under the CSPA and eligible for EAD renewals?
There are two dates based upon which green card applications move one date is the date for filing and the other date is the final action dates. Your CSPA protection is covered by the final action dates; the visa bulletin dates when they become current. Dates for his final action dates must become current before he turns 21, if they slide back again, that's not a problem but for one time they must become current. More...

It was great working with Rajiv, Anna, and Aneet. They addressed all my queries. We went through all the processes, and every week we were updated about the progress and followed a path. The team is not money-minded, so ensured that everything is submitted in a detailed manner. They explain everything why it is done, so you understand it before putting in the effort and money.
5 stars for promptness, availability, quick response, attention to detail, knowledge, and experience.
1) Please list out what are the documents need to be carried for final interview by main applicant and the dependents?
2) What are the general questions we can expect from the officer during the interview who makes decision and how the interview process will be, so we can be aware and prepare ourselves?
1. Always tell the truth.
2. It is okay to say I don't know. Also, if you are struggling to reply you can say I don't remember and always ask for a clarification if something is not clear. More...

I would like to thank the team of Mr. Khanna. He has been of great help. Initially they filed my case for H1B and got approved with no problem and now I am applying through Mr. Khanna and Mr. Mathew for EB2 GC. My case is very complicated so Khanna ji gave two consutations without any charge and spoke about all the details. My employer offered me her attorney but still I have so much of confidence in Mr. Khanna that I am filling through him. I am sure despite my case being so different, he will leave no stones unturned to represent my case in the best manner. I will update as we will progress. Once again Mr. Khanna thanks for being so cooperative and visionary.
