I have worked with Mr. Khanna's law firm over the past 4 years for my Green Card process and the experience has been extremely satisfying ! Everyone that has to go through immigration process knows how stressful the whole situation can be and you need to have a lawyer by your side who puts you at complete ease. Mr. Khanna and his team is very friendly, professional, knowledgeable and outstanding in their service. I appreciate their invaluable advice/legal counsel and their promptness in every matter. The whole team is meticulous, very responsive and it's comforting to know that you have such a great lawyer by your side. I'm glad that I made the right decision in switching to Mr. Khanna's law firm and I strongly recommend them to anyone that needs immigration counsel !

...................................................................................................

Question: When applying for new jobs, do I need to ask for a new H-1B, or can I work using my current EAD and change employer?

Answer:  You can go ahead and join with the EAD but keep the future plan of reactivating your H-1B. 

Question: Like H-1B after termination, is there a 60-day rule? Does that rule apply to me also, even though I have an EAD?
