Mr. Rajiv Khanna is very helpful for taking time to answer my questions on EB3 and EB2 visa and the correspondingly porting from EB3->EB2. This not only helps me but gave some clear ideas on from grey areas on AC21. I fully appreciate the help he rendered to me on this issue. Also Ms. Prerna helped me too on this regard which I won't forget. Thanks a lot Rajiv Sir and Prerna Ji! Best regards.

Dear All, I have started my consultation with Rajiv and as of date have got genuine feedback on my profile. He was open and straight in his comments about my NIW case. Now I am working with Rajiv to get L1-A done for me. Have the belief that my L1-A petition would be through and successful. Thanks You very Much.
May a third party (spouse, sponsor, etc.) accompany an applicant to an interview for a Nonimmigrant or Immigrant Visa?
The State Department says that on the Immigrant Visa side, the petitioner may accompany the beneficiary if a petitioner is in the Consulate city at the time of the interview. The interviewing officer will speak to the petitioner only if he/she determines it is necessary to assess the case. Applicants under 17 years old MUST be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian on the Nonimmigrant Visa side.

OFLC appreciates the challenges the regulated community has experienced as a result of the lapse in appropriations, which resulted in the cessation of the operation of OFLC's electronic systems, and further resulted in a backlog of documents submitted to OFLC during that period by mail, hand-delivery, or email.
Mr. Khanna is the best in the Business (if you don’t agree with me, he is certainly one of the Best). His law firm is handling both my H1-B and Green Card, and my experience has always been really really very very good. Mr. Khanna has a very good team but when crises arise or there is confusion in the application process he will directly get involved – this means a lot - as the best and brightest person in us immigration arena is dealing your case. I very highly recommend his law firm.

Thanks Mr Rajiv Khanna for providing us guidance regarding travel on AP while being on H1-B. We are really looking forward to our India trip soon.
Rajiv Khanna answered straight to the point and his answers are really helpful to me for better processing of my case.
I saw my I-485 Denial notice after a week, It is a panicking situation. I changed my employer for permanent position, and my I-140 was cancelled by my old employer. I did not file my AC21, Lesson learnt is, talk to a good attorney rather than asking friends and well wishers. There I choose Rajiv Khanna, we got 30 days to appeal after denial, answered all my questions, It was 180 days passed after I-485 applied, It is not a correct decision from USCIS.
My case, Motion to reopen (MTR) received to USCIS in 10 days from Rajiv Khanna's office. Do i need to say, He is the best and have a good team to support and help me out in a short time.
Guess what, my case was re-opened and I got my Green card in 2 months. I am waiting for my Family MTR and GC. It is time to thank Rajiv Ji , Kunal Ji and Team . I really appreciate for all the work you did in my difficult situation. Thank you.

Both my L1A visa related work and my EB1C related work is done by Rajiv's Law office. My experience with them was simply awesome. They know the process well and they 1st understand the profile and about company and guide us accordingly. I think they are really a subject matter expert in this. Also I appreciate the response time, Anna worked on my L1A and Diane worked on my GC application and both were kind, pateient and prompt in responding any query. They patiently asnwered all my queries during the process. I got my GC in 2 month's time after filing and it was quick. You get personalize service during the process and which is very important since you are sure about what you are submitting to the department. Overall it was very plesant experience working with Rajiv's office and will definately recommend this office for all future immigrants. Good luck Rajiv and his team.
