Hi, I took consultation with Rajiv sir twice for my sister-in-laws immigration issue. The first consultation showed us the path to keep immigration status current. Also, the consultation gave lot of confidence and relived our stress. Rajiv sir is excellent in his knowledge and he is well prepared to answer our questions during the actual consultation over phone. I am very much satisfied with the consultation provided by Mr. Rajiv. I can clearly see there is a helping mentality rather than just a service. Rajiv sir is very professional and gave us one free consulation when we requested for paid consultation for few questions. He is very promt in responding to regular emails with specific question, ofcourse without any charge. Rajiv sir, Thank you very much for everything. Regards, Siva
I was having issues with moving from one company to another on H1B as the deadline was too tight and conflicting. Mr. Rajiv Khanna explained everything so well and in such a simple language that it made it very clear to choose proper path. He gave me more than enough time twice and that to within 48 hours. Thanks a lot Mr.Rajiv; your help was greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot to Mr.Khanna and his imm. team.
I am very happy with your services. I had a history of taking a break on my H1 and transferred my visa to H4. While I re-applied for my H1b through your office, I was really with your professionalism and the way you gathered information from my employer. I got the visa without any issues.I appreciate your work and would surely recommend to my friends.
The Department has posted new Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) for the H-1B, H-1B1 and E-3 Programs.
It was a pleasure working with Rajiv's office on an H1 application for our employee. Though there was a considerable amount of paperwork required as a result of the increased diligence from DHS lately, we got good instructions with clear guidelines on what was needed at each step. Anna and Fran answered our questions very promptly and capably. They were also very careful to consult Rajiv on any legal opinions. I know Rajiv handles a lot of cases, but with the processes he has in place and attention his staff gave to this case, we might as well have been his only client. Thanks Rajiv, Anna and Fran.
