Rajiv ji, I am so happy to inform you that we received our GC today. It would not have been possible without the help from you, Mathew Chacko, Suba, Bharati, prerna and others. You folks are the beacons for the immigration community from around the world. Service is Excellent, Guidance is Great, Support during dire situations is priceless. Holding GC is truely a liberating experience and THANK YOU ALL for helping us acheiving that dream.
Law Office of Rajiv S. Khanna did an excellent job and have provided his expertise on my green card case. It was a long journey for 6 years and from the day one I have received an excellent service on all walks and folds on my case. I would like to thank Mathew Chakow and Prerna for their excellent work and very high patience in repling all kinds of queries. I would like to extend my thanks to Rajiv Khanna who have also taken atmost care and provided his guidance in critical situations. Thank you all the members of Law Office for their efforts and extended support in my journey.
Should H-1 be renewed while the AOS is pending?
Bottomline - I think H-1 should be renewed.
A little more info: A few months ago, I used to feel strongly that AOS applicants should keep their H-1 active for several reasons. Two of these are:
One, EAD issuance was erratic and CIS had discontinued issuance of interim EAD's (that is, if in 90 days your EAD is not issued, you could walk with a infopass appointment to your local CIS office and get an EAD). Thus, EAD's were unreliable and given for only a year. You could have interruptions in your work.
Rajiv, this month’s visa bulletin shows our category is current. What does this mean for people who have already applied for 485. Have AP and EAD. And now their dates are current again? Does it mean they will get a GC via mail? What if I haven’t had my FP done yet?
As of July 2008, this is how the system works.
First, let me provide a little background. Priority Date is the date your PERM is filed (in Case of EB-1 or NIW – the date your I-140 is filed; in case of Family-based petitions – the date your I-130 is filed.).
Work Done: Green Card Can People Contact Me As a Reference: by all means. Comments: My family and I got GC under EB2 this Friday last. We had an extremely pleasant experience with this office. I had personally interacted with Rajiv, Suman, Bharathi, Prerna on various occasions. They are prompt in returning e-mails ( turn around time less than 24hrs). In fact when I applied for AC-21 in 2007, I was called for an interview. Rajiv was kind enough to give me his cell phone number with the liberty to contact him if the need arises. Since we finished our labor (under PERM) and all other requirements, We got into EAD/AP mode in 6 months ( Aug 2005) from the start date ( Feb 2005) for the whole process. This office has been filing my EAD and AP since ( about 4 times now). Thanks for all the help. Dr Narayana Bhat Bhat Dental Associates 590 Eagles Landing Pkwy Stockbridge, GA 30281 678-289-2122
