I had a great experience dealing with Rajiv Khanna ji's office. My US EB1A petition received amazing support. Being proactive and meticulous, Diane in his office is a terrific expert to deal with. I-140 approval went through a smooth process from start to finish. Rajiv ji's accessibility made sure I could make the proper choices when I needed to. Although at first I thought Rajiv ji was being unreasonable in asking that I gather and submit all the documents for the petition, I came to see that his demands were there to ensure my success. Rajiv ji's office is unquestionably the best place to go if you want to meet your US Visa milestones on schedule. I'm grateful to you, thank you Rajiv Ji.
