DEAR MY FREIND

I HEARD THAT CHANGING J1 RESEARCH TO J1 CLINICAL IS VERY DIFFICULT BUT ITS NOT IMPOSSIBLE.

IF YOU ACCEPT FOR RESIDENCY PROGRAM YOU HAVE A CHANCE TO CHANGE IT TO H1B VISA .

ITS EASIER THAN TO CHANG YOUR VISA TO J1 CLINICAL

I HAVE A QUESTION. I AM IN US RIGHT NOW WITH B2 VISA . I AM GOING TO CHANGE IT TO J1 RESEARCH

I FOUND A NON SALARY RESEARCH JOB IN US . IF I APPLY FOR J1 VISA ,DOES THE IMMIGRATION AUTOMATICLY GIVE ME A J1 RESEARCH VISA AND WAIVE 2 YEAR RESIDENCY ?

WHICH PART OF DS-2019 FORM MENTION ABOUT WAIVE OF 2 YEAR RESIDENCY ?

DOES HOSPITAL HAVE A ROLL TO WAIVE 2 YEAR RESIDENCY OR DECISION OF IMMIGRATION?

I REALY appreciation ANY HELP YOU OFFER ME.

MY EMAIL IS FARJOUDI@YAHOO.COM
