A great big heartfelt thanks to the Law Offices of Rajiv Khanna. After much waiting I finally got my green card approved. It has been an excruciating 3 year wait since I filed my I485 and during these years every time I had a doubt with what I can or cannot do and with any travel related questions, I have had great support from the Law Office. A special thanks to Mathew Chacko and Prerna , whom I have been in touch with primarily over the past years. Mr Mathew Chacko's speedy response amidst his busy schedule is commendable and much appreciated. A big heartfelt thanks again and I am sure I will only think of this law office for all my legal needs.
I and my husband received our GC on Aug 20, 2010. This whole process took almost 4 yr and 8 months. We are thankful to Rajiv Khanna and his team for constant support and guidance. Their paper work was excellent and team was very accomodating. Thanks for excellent work and support. Dolly and Rajiv Chavan

The NPWC is experiencing an unprecedented number of prevailing wage determination requests (PWDRs) for H-2B labor certifications, many of which include surveys. The lingering effect of the government shutdown, coupled with the complexity of reviewing new surveys, has resulted in increasing wait times for PWDs with survey requests. Employers' needs may not be able to accommodate the longer processing times, although the NPWC is working to reduce the processing time of these surveys as quickly as possible.

A couple of questions I have in extension to the I-140 withdrawal by employer are below. If I have I-1485 pending for more than a year via company A and I join company B using my EAD/AC21:
a. what will be the impact if Company-A decides to withdraw/cancel/dissolve the I-140?
b. Is there a possibility for a NOIR to occur on the I140 which had been approved in 2011? If yes what is the impact in either cases?
What are the measures I need to take in either case?
a. No effect on your AC21 right, but you cannot extend future H-1 (if you need them).
b. Oh yes.
I got my labor certification approved a few days ago. Mr. Khanna's office did a wonderful job gathering all the details and working with my company to get it done. The process was very smooth and my employer was really happy with the response time from Mr. Khanna's office. Special thanks to Richa for patiently answering all the questions and filing the petition on-time and accurately. She is a true professional and a great resource of information to all new applicants. Thank you once again! I would definitely recommend Mr. Khanna to all my friends for all their Visa needs!
