Physician's NIW/Complex facts

12 years ago By Rajiv S. Khanna

Our client recently received his green card after a long journey with USCIS. He approached us following a denial of his I-140 (NIW, physician in medically underserved area). The applicant had filed the I-140 and I-485 and then moved to a different state while the applications were pending. There had been no action on the file for 2 years. He submitted a service request with USCIS requesting a status update. USCIS issued a Request for Evidence shortly after the applicant’s move, which was sent to the original address and ultimately returned undelivered.

My friend Dr. M.K. Shukla advised me to contact  attorney Mr. Khanna for my I-140 case in EB1 category. My initial   telephonic conversation with Mr. Khanna was very friendly and he gave me good suggestions regarding my case. Ms. Diane Lombardo was handeling my case and I  found her very efficient, sincere and helpful. For my  questions/doubts I found her very prompt in reply and giving me fruitful suggestions. Because of her help and sincere effort, my case was done very quickly. I found all the members of his team to be very helpful. I thank Mr. Khanna, Ms. Diane, Mr. Chacko and his team. I strongly suggest to those looking for an immigration related issues. Anil Kumar Michigan

Mr. Khanna is extremely knowledgeable. In my personal experience he's been the only lawyer to know the legal intricacies as well as he does. In my case one tiny detail that he caught made such a huge difference from me being "out of status" to being in "authorized period of stay". He is the person to go to for any immigration advice, and on top of that he is really wonderful to talk to.

The information Mr. Khanna provided was very helpful. I was scheduled for a phone conference appointment for no cost since I am a student. He is definitely a great person who really makes an effort to sort out others issues. I wanted to make sure that the statement of reason for application of the waiver for the two-year home country physical presence requirement of the J-1 visa, was a strong reason, so he asked me more question about my J-1 program to figure out a better reason for the application which turned out being a better one than the one I was thinking about.

First of all thanks to Mr. Rajiv Khanna for finding time for me and many others for free consulatation. I am from India and I went to USA in the year 2006 and 2009 on J1 visa. Currently I am in Italy and I have to start the J1 waiver process. As there is not enough information avialable for people like me who are neither in USA nor in India at the time of applying for J1 waiver. So I consulted Mr. Khanna and he told me that the Indian consulate in Italy should be contacted first and they should attest the documents. He is right because you can not send your original passport  to anywhere else other than government offices in the country you are living in. Once I ge the attestation done, I will send the documents to India to obtain clearance from the three departments. I told Mr. Khanna that this is like a social service what he is doing because my experience with the other lawyers of Indian origin is not so pleasant. Bye
