I had few questions on EB1C filing;
- I am here in the US from 2015. Prior to that I was working as an Manger for the same firm in India.
- I was appointed as a Principal and then promoted as a Solution Manager last year. My role involves tasks during the entire duration of a given project and as part of the project I co-ordinate with the offshore teams assigned on the project for deliverable and to assign other tasks related to the project.<br>
1. As part of EB1C filing is there a mandatory requirement that a manager should be having dedicated team members<br>
2. If 1 is yes then can we consider the offshore team members assigned per project who would be supervised to the level of getting status of tasks, providing clarifications, training them etc.<br>
3. Is there a minimum number of reports required in the US and while I was in India, and if those reports have left the organization is that Ok?

I wish to thank Rajiv Ji and other members of his team for brilliantly handling my F1 visa reinstatment case, which I lost due to Tri Valley fraud. Rajiv Ji stepped in as an angel in the toughest times in my life and painstakingly prepared and filed the I 539 application. He is very kind and went a step ahead and as a true samaritan, he filed it pro bono. I am very very grateful to him and his highly qualified and thoroughly professional staff for the timely help, guidance and the success, which I owe to immigration.com.
The U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs (ECA) will host the first of two "From Lab to Market" Enrichment Seminars for Fulbright foreign students in Cambridge, Massachusetts, May 15-19. The seminar will bring together 66 Fulbrighters from 45 countries who are pursuing graduate studies in science and technology fields at American colleges and universities, and will focus on how public health advances can be translated into accessible, global technologies.
In an effort to continue to attract the best and brightest international students to study in the United States, today DHS added more science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) designated-degree programs to the list of qualifying student visa extensions.
Rajiv has been of incredible help to me for the last few years. I'd applied for the 485 Adjustment of Status and it looked like I'd be stuck in the queue for years before my greencard arrived. So, as I thought about my career, I decided to go back to school for a Ph.D. However, I was told by most everyone that getting an F-1 visa to go back to school would be very difficult. Rajiv gave me excellent advice to still go ahead and apply for the F-1 -- I ended up getting it with no trouble whatsoever. As the years went by, I then ended up getting the greencard as well -- Rajiv has been really helpful in letting me know the specific requirements (in terms of the job classifications, travel etc) related to obtaining permanent residency. I have been following his advice and I have been really pleased -- he's been absolutely accurate in all of his advice and I'm certainly counting on him in times to come as well.

I want to Thank Rajiv ji and his team for the invaluable services they provide. While maneuvering the arduous process of immigration, most immigrants need an attorney who understands their concerns and has no qualms in going above and beyond the business relationship. Mr. Khanna and his team do just that..... Go above and beyond. I had burnt my fingers with a law firm in NY, and I had become cynical about the whole process and about the abject indifference some law firms have towards their clients. I consider myself extremely fortunate to have come in contact with Rajiv ji. The best part of Mr. Rajiv khanna's Team is that it comprises of like minded, highly professional, and empathetic individuals. Rena, Anna, Sumanji, And Jagbir took care of my case as if it were one of their own. I want to express my heartfelt gratitude for all their sincere efforts and formidable support. Thier professionalism coupled with empathetic attitude is a perfect antidote to the challenges one has to endure during the immigration process. I strongly recommend Mr. Rajiv Khanna and his stellar team. Thank You, Thank You, Thank You. Sincerely, RM.
I have been interacting Mr. Khanna and his office for my Green Card processing. They have my taken case as though this is one single case that they are handling and giving all the attention it needs. I am confident with this team, I will eventually get my Green Card and am thankful for the team.
Ours is a long story. My green card was filed under EB3 India with a PD of May 2006. My husband's green card was filed under EB3 India in 2005. When our dates became current sometime in 2007, my I-140 was already approved and his was pending. So, we decided to go ahead with my case and filed for I-485 for both of us. However, the dates then retrogressed and our lawyer informed us that my husband's case is no longer valid since his LC expired 3 months after it was approved. We didn't know that LC expires if not used within a specific time frame and the lawyer did not inform us either. Anyways, my husband's GC was again filed, this time through Rajiv's firm with proper guidance and through EB2. Rajiv also guided us to go through Consular Processing instead of I-485 since in our case, my husband could legally work using EAD via the I-485 applied through my case. In all these years, the company I work for has increased in size and wants to promote me. I consulted with Rajiv regarding this and inquired about possibility for porting from EB3 to EB2. Rajiv answered all our questions and guided us appropriately this time too. We are now waiting to hear about the Priority Dates for October 2012 bulletin and will make a decision about EB3 to EB2 porting. It feels so good to be able to talk to Rajiv regarding these questions related to immigration and his knowledge and experience in this field is very very valuable for people like us. Every time we have talked to him we have received excellent response and guidance. My husband and the company he works for had a very good experience with EB2 filing. Everything was very professional and was checked and rechecked before it was sent through. Thanks to Rajiv for all his help with our case so far!

Speaking to Rajiv was a breath of fresh of air! It was a pleasure talking to him and hearing his advice. It was good to finally to speak to a lawyer who is very professional, very knowledgeable and very caring about your personal situation. He helped us understand our options and clarified all the required processes. His wide experience provided us with great assurance, as behind his advice there is a wealth of knowledge and experience.
I have been dealing with Mr. Khanna and the team for the last several years. I always felt that everytime you encounter with team, there is continous improvement in handling cases professionally. He is very through with the law and more importantly pragmatic. He giudes the clients in the right way. A great firm to work with, as he has dedicated staff and his services are always praiseworthy.

Rajiv and his team are simply awesome. Rajiv knows the subject matter and is very thorough with all the rules and regulations. I was impressed with the humility, simplicity and honesty.
I was assisted by DIane Lombardo a colleague and team member of Rajiv, who was diligent, detailed, prompt and persistent. Diane is highly focussed, paid attention to minute details and analytical. Diane always responded to calls and emails within 2 hours, and referred the matter to Rajiv, whenever required for specialist advice. A great team indeed. Anna Baker also was involved in the coordination and I did see that Anna made extra efforts to ensure all documentations are perfect.
I highly recommend Rajiv and team for all immigration related work.
Mr. Rajiv is very helpful to Indian community through community call as well as to students.. he has profound knowledge in all category of immigration from employment to family. Very satisfied with consultation. Thank you very much.
