The Department of State’s Visa Bulletin for August 2016 reflects a final action date of January 1, 2010*, for EB-4 visas for special immigrants from India.
I am from India and holding an Indian passport. I work for a IT company. I manage around 250 members.
One of the agencies are tied up with another EB-1 and EB-2 processing agency in USA and informed me that they can help in processing EB1-A visa (Self Petition).<br>
My questions are:<br>
1. Is there a category of Visa as EB1-A?<br>
2. If so, is there a possibility for self - petition? i.e. without an employer?<br>
3. If I file EB1-A, what is the waiting period? Approximate is adequate.<br>
4. Once I get the EB1-A visa, can I self apply for Green card or should there be an employer assisting to file for Green card?<br>
5. If I apply for Green card on an EB1 A, how long generally with it take?<br>
1. Yes. See: http://www.immigration.com/greencard/eb1-green-card/eb-1-extraordinary-…-
2. Yes, self petition is possible under EB-1A.
3. Usually, it takes appx a year for the whole process.
4. EB-1A IS a green card category. Nothing else is needed.
5. See 3 and 4.

My GC process was a good experience.
I got prompt service and people were caring. Suman Bhasin and team members did a good job answering all my questions throught the GC process. Mr. Rajiv Khanna too made himself available in his busy schedule once over the phone. Thank you everybody at Law Offices of Rajiv S. Khanna. I appreciate your help!

We are delighted to share that my wife and me both got the green card in the mail.
Once again thanks a zillion times from bottom of our hearts for Rajiv and his teams support and help during this long and painful process.Initially our case was handled by various other team members but lately our case was assigned to Mathew and Rita.I would like to sincerely thank Mathew,Rita and Pramita (our earlier case manager) for their support and help.All the team members were professional, courteous,prompt,patiently answered all our questions and helpful which makes ton of a difference.We didn't get an even single RFE.
May god bless you all for doing such an excellent job.Keep up the good work.
Our case was filed in August 2004 in EB2 category.Later it was transferred to Dallas BackLog Center.After 3 years in 2007 our first stage(Labor) was approved and just in time for July'07 fiasco filing.Rajiv asked us to be prepare with all the documentation for 140&485 concurrent filing during turmoil period.There was lot of uncertainty, chaos due to July/August 2007 Visa Bulletin.During that crisis time Rajiv and his team not only guided us very well but also came up with an innovative idea of opening up a new web site exclusively for their customers to share the information and to answers all our concerns. Rajiv and his team is very particular and prompt in answering all the questions via above mentioned web site.It provided lot of update and information about how the team was handling such crisis situations and also helped us better understanding the BIG picture.
Based on our personal experience for the past 4 years+ I would highly recommend Rajiv and his team for any immigration needs.
Got our approvals for EB green cards on July 25, 2008.
Apart from having some trouble in porting my PD to an earlier approved I 140, our case was handled very well. A very big "THANK YOU" to Mathew for all your help and guidance. You were great and very prompt in responding to all my queries.Also my thanks to Heather who did a great job in getting all my paper work together and responding to all my questions.
