If you will ask me what is the definition of the word HOPE, the first thing that I will definitely remember in my lifetime is Atty. Rajiv. I have asked numerous lawyers who can fix my case which was messed up by incompetent lawyers and they all told me the same thing, HOPELESS[b].[/b] Atty. Rajiv and his team, specifically Atty. Jagbir, literally saved my family's future! We have been subjected to a 10-year bar but because of Atty. Rajiv's ingenuity, we were able to escape the impossible. He is a[b] [/b]miracle worker. No adjective could ever describe the way we feel right now. We were finally granted our extension of stay which had been countlessly denied. His staff were very kind and accomodating, they were able to understand what we were going through at that time that they were very sensitive in answering all emails, calls and questions that I had. We are now in the process of filing our greencard and I am very optimistic that everything will now run smoothly since Atty. Rajiv is our "superlawyer". I have learned my lesson, no one could ever have done it best but Atty. Rajiv. My heartfelt gratitude to you and your staff! God bless all of you!!

After a long journey in becoming a permanent resident, with the help of Rajiv and his team, I have become a PR recently. Had to go through some tough situations with the immigration during the process. Rajiv and his team did an excellent job in helping me through those tough situations and were always available to answer all my questions and provide valuable advise. Thank you much Rajiv and all the supporting staff who have contributed. Thank You.
I have been following Rajiv ji on his website and blogs for over 6 years now. Always wanted to be associated with him and I am so glad that the time came last year when Ms Heather handled my PERM case. Conference calls, guidance needed, anxiety - all were handled with great professional attitude and passion. I could not have felt more comfortable. Rajiv Ji is such a gem of a person, no words can describe what he does for the community. This year, a colleague of mine was going through extreme troubles with a 10 year bar on her and her family with 3 school going kids. The case was messed up by 3-4 lawers and all of them were advising them in a negative way.. completey in the wrong direction. I introduced her to Rajiv Ji and she was very hesitant in the beginning, did not want to go to another lawer, had accepted her fate etc etc. But in my heart I knew, there was hope till Rajiv Ji does not say 'no'..... and guess what, in our first meeting together he gave great hopes with a lot of positivity. His approach is very human, very person. I just love that. Well, needless to say, a case which would have been a disaster for a family of 5, was taken care of with great care and passion, with a lot of heart into it. And we all know, where there is heart and truth, God cannot be away! The family got it's status back, its like a dream and probably we will take time to actually understand and feel the result.... Jagbir Ji and Anna were just amazing in their approach and handling of issues. I admire their professionalism and their personal touch given to a case. You are all a wonderful team and please keep up the same way always. God bless you all and thank you once again!
Rajiv ji is a very experiened immigration lawyer who provides honest and straighforward advice. I am very pleased with his approach and also very impressed with his knowledge of the law.

First in Series of Regulations Designed to Facilitate Electronic Filing and Handling of USCIS Benefit Requests
WASHINGTON—The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) published the first in a series of regulations intended to promote the migration of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) benefit filings from a paper-based environment to an electronic one. The regulation is an important step toward modernizing how USCIS handles the more than 6 million benefit applications submitted annually.
My I -485 is pending since 2007, on EB3. My I-140 approved in Nov 2007. I did not for I-485 for my spouse and dependents as they were not in USA. I am working on EAD and I do not have H1B. My Question is can I apply for H4 visa for my spouse, as I am legally working on EAD? I heard that people on student visa can bring their spouse on dependent visa.
You can have them apply for H-4 only if you go to an H-1 (you can). An F-1 is difficult if you have an AOS pending.
I can't begin to tell you how excited I am! Today we are finalizing the details so we can move Pastor Immer and his family into their home! It is the dream of a lifetime for him and his family! I can't begin to thank you enough for your quality work with us during this process. Fran and Anna have been absolutely wonderful! Patient with the many requests and many phone calls. Kind in the treatment of me in the process! :). Extremely thorough and obviously exceptionally professional and knowledgeable! We are thrilled and recommend your offices to others!

I have come here with my husband who is on L-1 visa. I have L-2 visa. What work opportunities are there if I have no EAD. Second,I have gone to the office to get SSN. But the lady there told me that I don't require that and they refused to give me.What could be the reason I didn't get that. Can I apply for EAD if I don't have SSN? I'm here in US for 6 months. I want to work as I have done my MBA.
I am working in USA on my H-1B right now and my wife is on H-4B. My H1 is valid until 2013. I am planning to leave my job within next few months. After that, we want to visit entire USA for few months before I go back home. Can I change from H-1B(for myself)+ H-4B(for my wife)or B-2 Visitor for both?
You can and should apply for B2 for both.
I cannot thank enough the Law Offices of Mr. Khanna for getting me and my wife our L1-A and L2 approvals. A special thank you to Mr. Jagbir, who assisted us, guided us and was there for us the entire time. He was very patient, helpful and informative, and Mr. Khanna was always available to answer my never ending questions. I can confidently say that it is because of their hard work and dedication to this case that we got our approval. We had a very complicated case whereby our LI-A had already expired, and the extension was denied. Mr. Jagbir presented our case with updated information and new evidence, and after he responded to the RFE with a 700 page file, our case was approved. Thank you so very much Mr. Khanna, Mr. Jagbir and Ms. Anna, we will forever be indebted to you.

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.
