I had a brief phone consultation with Mr. Khanna. I found him to be very down-to-earth and personable. He had carefully reviewed the issue before the phone call and his advice was to-the-point. I will gladly recommend friends and family to seek his advice on immigration matters.
Since March 4, 2013, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has been accepting applications for Provisional Unlawful Presence Waivers (Form I-601A).
