Global Allianz Law Firm LLP has the expertise to file your immigration application for J-1 visas.

J-1 VISA A J-1 visa is a non-immigrant visa issued by the United States which allows foreign nationals to enter the U.S. to participate in exchange programs for participating in programs that promote cultural exchange, especially to obtain medical or business training within the U.S and for sharing of knowledge and skills in education, arts and sciences.

All applicants are supposed to meet eligibility criteria and be sponsored either by a private sector or government program. J-1 visitors may remain in the United States until the end of their exchange program. Once a J-1 visitor’s program ends, he or she may remain in the United States for an additional 30 days, often referred to as a “grace period,” in order to prepare for departure from the country.

The minimum and maximum duration of stay are determined by the specific J-1 category under which an exchange visitor is admitted into the United States. As with other non-immigrant visas, a J- 1 visa holder and his or her dependents are required to leave the United States at the end of the duration of stay.
