It’s a pleasure and an honor to recommend Mr. Rajiv Khanna and his Law Offices. I am writing to express my deep gratitude for RajivJi’s guidance over the past 1.5 years starting with PERM audit, supervised recruitment and through I-140 RFE and right to the I-140 approval. In all the conversations with him, he has always given me honest, straightforward assessments, and creative suggestions, which in turn gave me immense confidence even when situations looked gloomy. He backed this case right from day 1, possibly more than how much I backed myself on it.
I strongly believe, RajivJi’s intellectual brilliance and creativity coupled with his decisiveness at various critical junctures through the tough phases were the most significant keys to success in my case. I have firm conviction, that RajivJi’s immigration law expertise is second to none in the country.
I tip my hat to you!
Over the last 5 years, I worked closely with his some of his folks. This is a big shout out to VijayJi, Bharathi, Kunal, Suman and Kalpana.
Vijay Ji, I can’t thank you enough for zillions of hours you spent on going through and organizing all the hundreds of resumes received through supervised recruitment. Vijay Ji, you went over and beyond. I specifically remember, when you went to USPS at 8:30PM to send the package on time! Thank you very much.
Kunal, I greatly appreciate your thoroughness and the meticulous planning of I-140 RFE response. In all my interactions with you, you made me feel confident by answering all my questions and spending time with me discussing nitty-grittys of the content.
Bharathi, Thank you so much for pulling things together for multiple RFEs and answering my numerous phone calls and emails patiently.
When I met all of them at their Arlington office, the one thing that struck most to me is that they put a human face to my case and made me feel like a part of their amazing family. Gestures like that is what separates this bunch from any other.
Kudos to you all!
Warm Regards,
SK
Hi: I found my entire interaction with Rajiv S Khanna and company to be a very positive experience. Right from the initial point of contact to making an appointment and on finally speaking to Mr. Khanna himself. I would say my experience was very enriching. Thank you Jehangir Gotla
I finally received my green card this month after 5 years. Just a little background, I been working with Rajiv ji since 1999 , I almost have 6-7 H1 extensions. I started my GC process before Perm and been through almost all the possible complications one can have. I can proudly say that with help of Rajivji and team I am able to finish that journey without losing the hope. I got an opportunity to talk to Rajivji for than 6-7 times on different problems. I am really amazed the way he handles these repetitive questions with sincerity and in-depth knowledge of his trade.
On one Friday I received a notice that USCIS transferred my I-485 case to AAO by mistake even after they approved my second I-140. I was really upset as it means there will be at least 18 months delay even if my date is current. To my surprise I received CC email from Mr.Khanna on early Saturday morning guiding his team about next step. It clearly shows how closely he monitors most of his cases.
Also many thanks to [b]Sumanji,Anna, Mathew,Rita,Bharthi,subba,Pranita[/b] and other staff members who are very co-operative during this process.
I am greatly thankful to one of Rajivji’s [b]attorney Ms Sheena Gill[/b], with whom I worked for last two years. She is more than one can ask to get[b] best case manager[/b] on your case. Since USCIS send my case I-485 to AAO it was clear that this case will go nowhere. Sheena was super prompt in following up the case during this time. Without her efforts it was not possible to reach at this stage.
I am thankful to Mr.Rajiv Khanna and his staff for all the help during these nine years.
I have engaged Rajiv's office for over 10 years now for many different reasons. I've also been recommending Rajiv's law offices to my aquaintences & friends for over 10 years now. I have very close examples of people who lost 3-5 years going to some other lawyer & later, at my advise, going through Rajiv's office, who somehow 'fixed everythin' ???? Rajiv once told me ... ' why do you want to engage my office? this is so simple, you can do it yourself and save some money..." if you expect more from a lawyer... you are crazy!!!!! For Rajiv, its not about the money... he REALLY wants to 'do the right thing'. Rajiv provided me guidance for a new case - at no cost just because I was a old client - & literally advised me I could save money by doing the work myself - it was very simple. I was infact, ready to pay him or some other lawyer 100s of $s because this was a inquiry near & dear to me. There is no better example of honesty & forthrighness ( i've dealt with many lawyers in my lifetime & if you have a better example, I'd certainly like to hear it) . I'd ( & have already ) recommend Rajiv for his unparalleled knowledge & honesty in a instant & have also, personally, gone back to him time and again - H1B , family visas, family GC, company visas etc etc etc - again & again......its a no-brainer for me... & yeah.. I'd put my money where my mouth is.... --DJ
I am thankful to Art who was my case manager in my green card application. He initiated my PERM process and help me out in each and every step till i got my physical green in hand. There were couple of bumps (RFE, etc) but the firm handled it so quickly and professionally without any issues whatsover. It is worth to mention about availability of Mr Khanna on coneference calls, as and when needed without any delay and whenever you have doubts or questions. I will also thank heather and others people and attorney that help me in getting my Green Card. Really nice law firm and highly recommended.
I had an accident and am on disability while my green card adjustment of status application ( form I-485 ) has been pending for over 4 years. My I-140 had been approved about 5 years back but my case has been caught up in the visa backlogs at USCIS and Department of State. I wanted to know if there was any provision for help in the immigration laws, in case I am sent for long term disability or my employment is terminated before I receive my green card. I learnt that employment and disability are subjects to be discussed with a benefits or employment attorney. The only immigration benefits are via AC 21 or via a private bill. Also, that one should not loose the advance parole anytime while the AOS is pending. I want to thank Mr. Rajiv Khanna for his generosity with time and expert guidance. Over the phone I found him to have a very pleasant personality. he had me feel comfortable and didnt seem money minded at all.
Mr Khanna is not only a prominent immigration attorney in US but also a very helpful person. Right from the days of Unitefamilies (back in 2004-2005), he is very helpful and a great adviser in helping us in all possible means. Even though his time is very costly, but he is always much willing to help us with entire heart and without any cost. I am very thankful to Rajiv Khanna for all the advises he has given me in all these years.
It has hardly been a couple of weeks we started working with Mr. Khanna & his closely knitted team. We already got the confidence that we are shielded with strong support and great care! What else does a client need! Thanks to the team!
Very knowledgeable and profession Service
I got my physical Green Card today. It has been a long 4-5 years and I must say that it could have NOT been possible without the constant support, guidance, diligent and patient hard work put in by Mr. Rajiv S Khanna and his stellar team of Mathew Chacko, Prerna Mehta, Richa Narang and others who I have interacted with in the past and are probably no longer with the law firm. This team was always a step ahead, instantaneous in answering ANY questions whatsoever. I have even spoken to Mr Rajiv himself at one occasion since I was really concerned about some issues and even though being extremely busy was very nice in giving me a phone appointment the very next day. He, along with his team were very courteous, non judgemental and above all very humble in their approach and conversation. I could NOT have been able to get through with this entire process without them. I did not receive any RFE, everything was done in time and with utmost precision. Once again Many thanks from the bottom of my heart. Neeraj
We started GC process with Khanna firm in 2004. I got approved my GC in month of February. My case was assinged to Bharathi, prompt answers were provided when ever we had questions, concerns & queries. Bharathi thanks a bunch for your help during this process. Whole process was cake walk, professionally handled. Would recommend Rajiv and his team members for everyone who is lost in immigration world and looking for professional help.
I came to the United States by an H1B visa. The H1 visa was filed through my company's attorney which later I asked them to apply for my green card as well. Unfortunately, the attorney made several mistakes and I cancelled my contract with them. After some research and asking from friends and colleagues, I decided to go with the Law Offices of Rajiv S. Khanna whose web site, immigration.com is well known. Obviously the cost was higher than our company's attorney but I used to hear lots of sad stories about how some unexperienced attornies lost the customer's hope, time, and money. So, I think it was really worth it because last week I received my green card after less than 3 years. This is a very good record for EB2 category. Another Iranian friend of mine took about 7 years to get his GC! Heather Riddick, Art Shifflett, Mathew Chacko, and Rajiv Khanna worked on my cases during this time and I am extremely satisfied by their experience, knowledge, care, and accuracy. Cheers to all of them and thanks again!
Work Done : Employment Based Green Card Can people contact me as a reference: Yes I got my Green card approved on July1st 2010. I started the Whole process on April 2005 with Rajiv Khanna as my attorney. I must mention the speed at which they got my labor and 140 approved was very impressive.I must also mention the paper work done under his team's guidance was very methodical and I belive it helped me get my GC approved without any RFE's. I was very impressed with mr khanna's staff in general and with a special mention of mr mathew and bharathi who were very patient will all my questions and concerns.I was also very impressed with the way my daughter's case was handled by Mr Khanna and his staff, recommending me with different options and advicing me to do the right thing at the right time. My daughter's case was very unique and Mr Khanna and his staff had very clear understanding on her case and adviced me to do the right thing and finally on Feb20th 2011 her case was resolved. Without Mr Khanna and his staff I do not think my daughter would have got her green card. I highly recommend Mr Khanna's office to anyone who wants to apply for green card or any other immigration related issues.
I STARTED MY EB2 140 CASE WORK WITH RAJIV’S OFFICE AFTER WAITING FOR 2+ YEARS ON MY CURRENT PENDING EB3 140 FILED BY ANOTHER ATTORNEY.I GOT VERY GOOD CASE WORK AND DOCUMENTS REVIEWED BY RAJIV, SUMAN AND MATHEW CHACKO IN DETAIL AND SUGGESTED FOR PORTING AND INTERFILING MY 140’S WITH PENDING 485. MATHEW WAS VERY DETAILED ABOUT REVIEWING MY EXPERIENCE DOCUMENTS AND FINDING OUT THE CHANGES REQUIRED. I WAS ABLE TO GET THE CHANGES DONE AS RECOMMENDED QUICKLY. SUMAN WAS VERY QUICK IN ASSIGNING THE CASE TO ATTORNEY AND ALSO FOR ALL EMAILS FOR ANY CLARIFICATIONS NEEDED. EVEN THE ADMIN STAFF IS QUICK TO RESPONSE WITH SHIPMENTS OR ANY NOTICES. RAJIV WAS SO HELPFUL IN REVIEWING THE CASE IN DETAILS FOR HAVING THE CASE FILING DONE IN A STRATEGIC MANNER ESPECIALLY FOR INTERFILING THE MULTIPLE 140’S I HAVE GOT APPROVED AND PENDING SO FAR. FINALLY WE GOT THE APPROVAL IN LESS THAN 35 DAYS AND I AM REALLY REALLY THANKSFUL FOR RAJIV AND HIS STAFF, ESP. MATHEW CHACKO AND SUMAN FOR THEIR GREAT HELP AND CONCERN TOWARDS THE ATTENTION GIVE TO CLIENTS.I CERTAINLY REFER ANYONE OF MY FRIENDS OR KNOWN PEOPLE TO HAVE REPRESENTATION FROM RAJIV’S LAW OFFICE FOR THEIR GC PROCESS.
I had my green card filed through my employer and got the opportunity to work directly with Bharathi Gajjala, one of the attorneys/Case manager at the Rajiv S. Khanna law firm and I couldn't have asked for a better person to handle my case. She was always available to take my calls and answer any of the multiple questions I had in great detail, and never failed to return my calls and emails whenever I was not able to reach her. From EB2 case to having a green card in hand was super fast since Bharathi was always on top of my case. Mr. Rajiv was super accommodating with any queries that was routed thru Bharathi. My process went by really fast and I attribute that to the diligent work that Bharathi performed. I won't hesitate to recommend my friends and colleagues to this Rajiv S. Khanna law firm for any of the services they provide. NOW I HAVE A GC IN HAND :) Can't be more happy.
Mr Khanna provided great advice regarding my petition as it was complicated. We had to apply for an amendment while current H1B extension was pending. Mr Khanna made all the right arguments and we were able to get an approval. All along the process I've been working with Kalpana and Bharathi on regular basis and had calls scheduled with Mr Khanna when needed. They were very detailed and current in terms of documentation.
I would like to thank them once again and highly recommend "Law Office of Rajiv S. Khanna".
My wife, both daughters and I received our GC on Sep 02, 2009, I started the whole process with in June 2004, with Rajiv S. Khanna as our attorney. Rajiv is an expert on Immigration Laws and is straight up and abreast of rules & regulations and is strict about the law and stays strictly as defensive. He helped us at every point in the whole process. I must mention here that the paperwork done under his guidance has been perfect and I had no RFE's except at the last stage for my wedding certificate. I am specifically mentioning this because I have seen some of my friends stuck for years in the process because of careless paperwork. We are greatly thankful to Mathew Chacko, who is always available and is happy to responds calmly and peacefully. Also many, many thanks to Bharathi Gajala, Lakshmi, Tarun, Rita and other staff members who are very co-operative and would return calls & e-mails promptly. In short Rajiv and his staff made the whole process very easy, simple and painless. We are really glad that we chose this Law firm. We are greatly pleased with Rajiv and his staff as far as their professionalism, courtesy and promptness regarding my GC. Many of my friends and employees of our company went through Rajiv and all of them are also happy like me. We are thankful to Rajiv and his staff.
I had a conference call with Mr. Rajiv Khanna. My question was regarding time lines for Green Card processing. I am in my 6th year of H1-B and was planning to change my Job with 9 Months left on my Visa. I have not started my Green Card Processing yet. The call was quick and to the point. He detailed me of the options available. He didn't promise me that everything will be done but the call gave me the required confidence in my decision making. He is a [i]walking encyclopedia of immigration[/i]. Note: The call was a free call and he was there on call even before I dialed in. On the whole it was a good experience.
Immigration.com has great team and very pleased with the service.
We have received a series of reversals and remands from the USCIS appeals office (“AAO”) where we had argued that the USCIS had erroneously and illegally revoked approved I-140 petitions. The grounds of appeal in the cases involved:
Failure to prove qualifications of employee because the documentation of experience was insufficient;
Successorship-in-interest of companies, where one company was acquired by another;
We represented an IT consulting company and a Senior Software Engineer employed by them from the point forward where they received an RFE. USCIS issued a Request for Evidence (RFE) questioning accreditation of the Indian universities where the applicant received his degrees. We researched the universities in question and documented that both are highly regarded and world renowned institutions. Additionally, we received an expert opinion that noted that both universities were accredited at the time the applicant received his degrees.
I went to Atty.Khanna's for help with porting my EB3 case to EB2. The whole process was transparent and very professionally handled.
Ms.Prena Mehta took utmost care to ensure that my paperwork was accurately filed and I am very very happy and pleased and thankful to the team for helping me get my GC.
Greatly appreciate all the professional assistance.
My sincere thanks to Mr Rajiv Ji and Mr Kunal Ji. I got my I-140 denial decision reversed in 7 months. I have this issue since 2012. I-140 originally files in 2007 and since then its been under initial review and received RFE/NOID In 2012. We approached the same attorney who was handling my I-140 and that didnt go well and ultimately it was denied. We approached Rajiv along with my employer and were in discussion for 20/30 minutes and said winning this case is fairly possible. Even I-140 petition wasnt supplied by previous attorney. Rajiv and Khanna briefed their arguement with me and asked me if i have any concerns so that they can add those in their arguement and discussed cons and pros and finally draft been finalized and sent appeal(I-290 B) to the AAO office. Our arguement was purely based on Labor copy and in 7 months appeal sustained and initial decision has been reversed and they approved I-140. We are now waiting for the approval copy so that have to go further and repair few more things. I am happy to say that i am going with Rajiv office to correct other things as well. WIth huge relief -Satish
Its been a long journey that started with completion of masters (F1) visa and today receiving green card (GC). I have been with Rajiv ji and his team since the beginning of my immigration journey (F1(OPT) -> H1 -> H1 Ext.-> Perm -> I140 -> I765 -> I485).
As said by everyone else here in the guestbook i also concur with all the things.
Firstly, they know what they are doing and are best at it. They have a solid knowledge about all the immigration rules, jargon, what can cause potential problem in future and how to handle the complexities a case has.
Secondly, very professional, prompt replies and free consultations. One thing that i liked is that they all are very easy to reach including Rajiv ji itself and that helps a lot in calming down the immigration anxieties of clients.
Best wishes to you and your team.
