L-1 to GC
I am on L-1 visa until 2015, according to my employer's attorney the I-140 form was already approved, now my employer does not want to continue with the I-485 form process (because they don't want to pay attorney's fees) and will not release any information related to my case, do I have any chance to continue with the GC process by myself? Or will I be facing deportation at the L-1 visa expiration date?
There is no problem with you paying the I-485 fees. But the employer must be involved to the extent that they need to provide a (truthful) letter evidencing continuity of your employment.
Mr. Khanna's firm has processed several H1-B and PERM applications for our company. We first came to him in a dire situation. Another attorney had been working on our behalf, but had not given us good service or advice. One of our key employees was faced with having to leave the country because of the situation. Rajiv, Anna, Heather and Judi were all very helpful in getting the situation resolved for us. Their knowledge of immigration law and their ability to explain it so that I understand what is happening has been excellent. It is empowering and now I am always confident that our immigration petitions are being handled in the most efficient and above board process possible.
