Professional, Knowledgeable and Easy to work with Immigration Desk
I worked with Anu and her team regarding an EAD issue that was going to affect my employment. From the beginning, Anu was able to understand the problem and provided excellent guidance and recommendations. She was able to work on filling the case very quickly on my behalf. She kept me in loop throughout the process. She explained every step of the process very well and was able to answer all the questions I had in a manner I can understand.
...I would highly recommend her for any immigration related issues or questions.
Professional, well organized, and passionate immigration services – Family Green Card approved
I worked with Ms. Anu Gupta at Immigration Desk to apply for permanent residence (green card) for my mother. I am originally from India (naturalized as a US citizen), and I wanted my mother to get a green card so she can visit and stay with us more often. Ms. Gupta was extremely professional and friendly throughout our application process. I always got diligent updates and follow-ups during our process, and she made sure to guide us through every step.
...More importantly, she had a uniquely personal touch with our case, considering the emotional and legal complexities of applying for a green card as an older Indian citizen/parent (like my mother). She had multiple phone calls with my parents where she reassured them about many of their concerns, and talked about her own experience doing the same for her parents in the past. Coming from an Indian background, I could not be more thankful that I worked with her. She made sure to slowly and professionally explain all of the pitfalls and steps that we should be wary of and reassured them that it is possible to have two homes (such as when applying for a green card to stay with children abroad). Indian families have very unique concerns about various life stages and experiences, so I was very happy that I worked with an immigration lawyer who understood all those nuances.
It goes without saying that I will recommend her (and Immigration Desk's) services (especially to Indians), and I will also work with them in the future.
