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.
The “Pending Employment-Based Form I-485 Report,” displays the total number of pending adjustment of status applications, per preference classification. The report shows how many pending adjustment of status (green card) applications in each preference classification have priority dates in a given month and year.

I have worked with Mr. Khanna and his staff on H-1B and green card applications for a few of my employees over the last 4 years. Never having done this before previously and with very limited knowledge of the immigration arena, I have found all of the staff members to be extremely helpful! There is never a time where I can't ask questions or seek guidance. Communication is very important and they never dissapear on me. Rather than it feeling like a client-lawyer relationship, I feel like it is more of a partnership. They are here to make the process smooth and as painless as possible. I would recommend their services to anyone who is in need, whether it be an individual or an employer.
My husband has an I-140 approved from Company A ( Priority Date April 2008 , EB2). He is now eligible for EB1 under Employer B ( He is currently on L1 A ). Can his priority date from EB2 be ported to EB1 ?

The answer is Yes. The main thing is priority dates for EB-2 and EB-1 can be ported and there is no particular format for this. This is supposed to be automatic. The government is supposed to keep a track of that. More...

It has been a long and anxious path to a GC application lasting a little over ten years but I would like to thank Rajivji and especially Art and Mark who have helped by providing step by step support through the entire process, including multiple H1B renewals and EAD renewals. Thank you for being a helpful and knowledgeable team.
