I am currently in the US under the VWP which expires March 15. I was about to apply for a marriage-based GC but I just found out that I am subject to 2-years HRR. I applied for a waiver (no objection). A lawyer told me today that I should still file the I-485 and just leave the question "subject to" blank or check "yes" and add "waiver pending". Is that going to work? I don't want to overstay the VWP. How many days does it usually take to find out that I-485 submission got accepted and I can legally overstay the VWP?
To the best of my knowledge that information is incorrect. You can file AOS only after the waiver is approved.
I have turned to Rajiv Khanna and his amazing team on a number of occasions. Most recently, to flush out a complicated immigration situation from France. The thing that impresses me most is his humanity, his vast knowledge, professionalism and generosity. Well, those are 4 things, not one. But it is hard to stop when posting a positive comment about Mr. Khanna's office and work. He responds immediately or has a staff member do so, and he will explore every possibility until he finds a solution. In the maze of disappointing immigration attorneys out there, I highly recommend him.
Mr. Khanna and his team are very helpful for addressing immigration related issues. Easy to contact and very prompt in response. Would definitely recommend his service to people who need help with immigration related issues.
Our software company has worked with Rajiv and his staff for 2 years on various visa applications (H1B, L1, EB2) and couldn't be more pleased. The entire staff is professional, reliable, knowledgeable, and friendly. Rajiv is never too busy to have a call to provide updates & recommendations, and even just to put employees at east during these most stressful times. I highly recommend the Law Office of Rajiv S. Khanna.
