I did at least 3 H1s and Green Card through this firm. I never had any glitches (no RFEs..never!)
Excellent courteous staff, prompt response are just some of the things that are so rare to find from other immigration lawyers. Rajiv Khanna himself is always available for advise.

Rajiv Khanna and his team is very professional.They have hot my H1B approved for my new job in time and most importantly, he rescued us from H4 dependents visa mess. I am very happy with him and his team for the services we received.I like people with honesty and sincerity.I highly recommend him.God bless you Rajiv.
I have H-1B visa and my husband has H-4 visa. If my husband is going to file H-1B from US, will it be a COS. If so, is there a timeline before he has to come to India to get his Visa stamped? I heard many H-4 to H-1B petitions are getting denied. Is that true?
It can be a COS. If a successful COS is obtained, there is no deadline on getting a
Mr.Khanna and his efficient team has smartly answered my complex H1 RFE to get it approved in 2 weeks. I can't thank them enough. I recommend all companies no matter what the size of the company is.
As stated by "Indian Express" :
A proposal that will hit Indian IT companies the most, US software giant Microsoft Corporation has suggested a whopping fee of USD 10,000 (over Rs 5 lakh) for a new category of H-1B visas and USD 15,000 (more than Rs 7.5 lakh) for permanent residency or Green card.
This could raise a huge USD5 billion over a decade, it said.
My first contact with The Law Offices of Rajiv Khanna was in 2001 and since then, between me and my wife, we have done 5 H1s and our PR petition.
All I can say is they are an amazing bunch of people and both of us trust them and follow their advice on immigration matters blindly. They are that good.
Many thanks to Rajiv, Charu, Anna, Suman, Vijay and Rena any many others who have helped us.
Thanks again and many regards.
I am here on an H-1B and I am looking at quitting my job very soon to leave the country. I am aware there is no grace period for quitting on an H-1B and I don't have a choice but to work till the last day. I do however have a tourist visa that is valid until 2016. Can I quit my job earlier and still stay a week on the account of the tourist visa to pack up and leave; or would the tourist visa have to be activated only be re-entering?
It has to be "activated." Note that under the circumstances reentry and hence "reactivation" is likely to be difficult.
I would like to thank you all at the law offices, Mr. Khanna, Charu, Rena and all others involved who worked hard on my case. I was quiet nervous as my case was the first such complex cases being sent out (I was on OPT and H1 cap was reached), but I did not have an iota of doubt in the proficiency and efficiency of your office. I am glad I opted for the services of Law Offices of Rajiv Khanna.
I have recently filed for H1B 8th year extension under premium processing and I got the approval in a week. Rajiv, Fran & Anna did excellent work throughout the process. I really appreciate Rajiv for his attention to detail and his thought process before filing the application. He even submitted some documents even before CIS want to think about it. Thanks again Fran and Rajiv.
Thank you for the most updated and recent valuable information and expertise provided by Mr. Khanna each time we seek fro advice!
A couple of questions I have in extension to the I-140 withdrawal by employer are below. If I have I-1485 pending for more than a year via company A and I join company B using my EAD/AC21:
a. what will be the impact if Company-A decides to withdraw/cancel/dissolve the I-140?
b. Is there a possibility for a NOIR to occur on the I140 which had been approved in 2011? If yes what is the impact in either cases?
What are the measures I need to take in either case?
a. No effect on your AC21 right, but you cannot extend future H-1 (if you need them).
b. Oh yes.
Mr Khanna and his crew are an amazing bunch of people. 6 years ago when I was exploited by my 1st employer Mr Khanna had responded to as SOS email from me.
This willingness to help cemented my decision to come back to Mr. Khanna for my H1 and Green Card application. Throughout both processes Mr. Khanna's entire crew was extremely helpful and responsive. Mr. Khanna's staff understands completely the feeling of insecurity and uncertainty posed by the delay in the immigration process and empathize with their clients.
I Would not hesitate to recommend their services to anybody I know.
It is the personal rapport and responsiveness that makes all the difference.
Immigration.com has great team and very pleased with the service.
I am on H-1B & my wife also on H-1B. After three months pregnancy leave my wife is planning not to work and to transfer from H-1B to H-4. She will not have last paychecks copy for three months so will it be an issue during transfer? Will she need to start the job again to get three paychecks copy ?
Reasonable maternity leave should be considered "in status" period, so pay stubs should not be needed.
Joy, Charu, Rena, Ursula and the rest were very patient in answering any questions I had.
Joy was handling my case and she is really good. These guys are the best.
I am planning to apply for H-1 through multiple employers. What are the precautions I need to take. I have my project end date in August, one of my employer will be representing with my current job. Will it be a problem later if the client details does not match ?
If you are a quota applicant, you can apply through as many unrelated companies as you like. Do not be a party to any misrepresentation.
My experience with your firm has been wonderful. The service was always courteous, professional and prompt. You, Charu, Suman, Matthew and Diane always answered our questions promptly. Any document that I sent to you was
processed expeditiously.
I have mentioned your firm to several of my friends who needed an attorney.
Feel free to use our names as reference.
Regards,
I take this opportunity to thank Mr.Rajiv Khanna, Ms.Ursula Jara and Ms.Charu Bhagat for getting my H1B petition approved in a very short time. I am grateful to them for answering all my queries promptly and with patience. I gladly recommend Mr.Khanna’s firm.
I hired the services of Mr. Rajiv Khanna's law firm after a so-called big shot immigration attorney here in Dallas proved to me that his incompetence & sheer lack of knowledge came at an exorbitant price. Being a perfectionist by nature, I decided not to go in to the H1 process with that conman and chose to go with Mr Khanna's law firm instead after thorough research. Can easily say that it was one of those decisions for which u pat yourself on the back. The sheer promptness, professionalism and clockwork precision exhibited by Anna Baker, Rena Waddell & Charu Bhagat was exemplary. At the same time, they were very patient with my constant complex queries. I never felt a lack of warmth in my interaction with them, which is pretty uncommon otherwise, especially when it comes to law firms. The processing & paperwork was super-quick and the ball was always rolling. It was hardly any time after my case was filed that I got a call one morning informing me of my approval. And to think that I have never even seen or met any of these wonderful people. One word to describe these guys. Brilliant.
Hi Rajiv, I just wanted to take this opportunity to complement you and your highly skilled team of lawyers on doing such a fantastic job of helping so many people out there who don't have enough understanding of US laws. You guys are not only knowledgeable but also EXTREMELY courteous and willing to help to all of us. I would specifically like to mention Leila M. and Hanna Baker, as the two individuals, I had an opportunity to talk to, and both of them were really helping and understanding. I can't thank them enough for providing the MOST accurate advice which helped me a lot and that too without expecting anything in return which makes it even more noble. Please keep up the good work.
Thanks.
I would like to thank all the staff at Law Offices of Rajiv specially to Ursula Jara who helped me through the process of my H1B visa. I want to express my sincere appreciation for their professionalism, concrete and accurate way my case was carried. They answered all my questions and helped me to do extra processing due to USCIS changes at NO extra charge, and the original fees for my case are the most reasonable. Whereas in other places these fees are outrageous and any minimum change in the process is charged from the beginning to the end of the process. I am just so please with their services in all aspects, and I just can't wait to start my Green Card case with them when the time is appropriate.
Thank you so much.
