I contacted immigration.com., and got an email back the next day, and phone consult set up with Rajiv Khanna two days later. He was extremely helpful, explaining to me the weaknesses and opportunities of my case, and actually gave me some reference point to talk to my employer. I am grateful to Rajiv and his staff for their assistance, and would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for quality legal opinion on their immigration cases.

Immigration.com has provided fabulous service for the multiple cases that I referred to them for my firm. Their clarity in approach and domain expertise makes these elaborate process seem very simple. Staff employees are courteous and sensitive to your needs. The best part is personal attention from Mr. Rajiv Khanna to every case that I dealt with him on. Nothing but FABULOUS is my experience. All the best to Immigrations.com and the firm. Abhishek
I would like to thank Mr. Rajiv and team for the excellent service they have been providing me for my GC processing.Ours is not a straight case. Rajiv's timely legal advice, ability to analyze the situation was very helpful when we encountered numerous twists in our GC case. The staff is quick and prompt in processing filing requests, setting up appointments with attorneys when required. Many thanks to Heather, Seema and Prerna for speeding up my case - Suman.
American Indians born in Canada (with at least 50% American Indian blood) cannot be denied admission to the United States. However, a record of admission for permanent residence will be created if an American Indian born in Canada wishes to reside permanently in the United States.
U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) is publishing a proposed rule that could save U.S. businesses more than $23 million over the next 10 years by establishing an advance registration process for U.S. employers seeking to file H-1B petitions for foreign workers in specialty occupations. The proposed electronic system would minimize administrative burdens and expenses related to the H-1B petition process—including reducing the need for employers to submit petitions for which visas would not be available under the statutory visa cap.
During my immigration processing, I have dealt with many immigration lawyers with rather disappointing results. The Law Offices of Rajiv S. Khanna stand out in many ways for their professionalism, quality of customer service, promptness of business, profound legal knowledge and expertise, and above all, professional ethics. My case was complicated - I had an I 751 petition denied for lack of supporting evidence and did not have my US Citizen husband's support. So I wanted to get an H1 visa to be able to stay in the country. Mr. Khanna and his team members really helped me with my case by giving me a very sound advise. I found several differential advantages of Mr. Khanna and his team members: They were able to grasp and line up all the facts of my case with no confusion or room for interpretation. The did legal research for my case before giving me legal advise and BEFORE deciding whether to take my case or not. So they do not waste their clients' money. The work that they performed on my case was done very promptly without leaving me up in the air waiting for the results. The work that they did for me left me confident that I got the best legal help available on my case, which is very important as dealing with USCIS and Immigration lawyers can be very frustrating. Overall, Mr. Khanna and his team members saved me time, money, frustration, trouble, stress, and made working with them an enjoyable experience.
Mr. Khanna proved to be the best lawyer I had to deal with. I highly recommend the Law Offices of Rajiv S. Khanna to everyone without any doubts. I hope I will not sound too strong if I say - if there's anything that can be done on complicated immigration cases, Mr. Khanna and his team will do the best job for the best value with professionalism, honesty, ethics, and integrity that makes them markedly stand out amongst the immigration lawyers. If I ever need any legal help for my immigration, I will not go to any other place.
My GC was approved in less than two years through The Law Office of Rajiv S. Khanna. I got very quick response from the firm for any kind of questions related to my case. I highly recommend them.

What happens if your H-1 expires before the PERM audit is cleared by DOL. Are we supposed to leave country. I have 20 months of H-1 life left to reach 6 years and my LABOR is in AUDIT status I am just wondering if I get an extension or will I be checked out of USA.
While a PERM audit or even an appeal against a denial after the audit is pending, you would still be entitled to H-1 extensions beyond six years.
After a PERM DOL certification petition has been filed for an EB-2 application for someone currently on H1-B, at what stage is it safe to change employers without affecting the application process? In other words, will change in employer mean starting the process anew?
I had a conference call with Mr. Khanna. I from India and have done my PhD. I was interested in filing for Green card through EB1 or NIW category. However, after looking at my CV he advised me that my case is not strong enough for either of the two. He said that whether I get the green card or not the lawyer will get paid, so I should be careful in selecting a category to file my green card under. This honesty really impressed me about him. I will take more legal advise before reaching a conclusion but at least Mr. Khanna was honest enough to give me his frank opinion and not take me for a ride as I have read about other attorneys / law firms. Thank you Mr. Khanna for your time !

I had recently requested a telephone conference with Mr. Rajiv Khanna regarding my pending 485 case. I am happy to report that I had a very pleasant experience and was very satisfied with the way they handled my request right from the secretary, Ms. Leslie, who took my questions and made the conference appt. to Mr. Khanna who answered my questions. He was punctual, professional and took his time to answer my questions. During the first telephone conference, he had a very busy morning and there were a number of callers waiting in line. After my call, I realized I had a couple more questions, and Mr Khanna asked me to make another appt. which was promptly given to me for the next day. I am also very thankful to Mr. Khanna for not charging me any initial consultation fees based on my current situation. I have no hesitation in recommending Mr. Rajiv Khanna and his office for your legal/immigration needs.
Mr. Khanna is the best attorney I have so far met, and believe me as a physician I have met tons of them. Mr. Khanna knows his area of expertise (immigration) so well that at the end of the 15 minutes discussion I had with him, I knew he was my best option. Of utmost importance is the follow-up, which the staff of Mr. Khanna have mastered so well. As long as Mr Khanna is in business, he will henceforth take care of all my issues relating to immigration. Without permnission from Mr. Khanna, I have already started recommending him to my colleagues. Hamisu Salihu, MD, PhD
