Has anyone in US (on any VISA status) got his/her J1 VISA from India or from Canada? Can you please give inputs as regards the process? Is getting J1 VISA in India easier or Canada is better? Please let me know. Your help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks and regards.

Hi,

ECFMG mentions on website that we have to take J-1 statement of need letter form country of most recent permanent residence, irrespective of citizenship.

If anyone know please tell me if I m PR in canada but still holds an indian passport can i apply for statement of need letter from india. Also how long i will have to stay in india to show india as my last legal residence and not canada.

In canada they issue this letter only in limited no. every yr and only for few specialities and it varies in different province. so its better to take from india.

Kindly reply if anyone knows anything about this.

Thanks.
