thx fox. Can u answer one more query? Most probably i will start in november (my research on j1 ) Do u think i can get a waiver before by june/july 2008 if i apply for after match day ?

  #5

fox what country are u from? because i finally found the skills shortage list and the list for my country doesnt include medical research. So , maybe the case varies according to the country of origin. plz let me know what country u are from...it is really imp for me because i have to make a decision real fast!

oh i see kapil dev in ur avatar. are u from India? I dunno how the clause was applicable to u...were u into cancer research?

  #7

in pakistan, this skills thing, is merely a formality...don't know abiut india
and misty if your research contract is only for six seven months tops, then i seruously advice you against j1 research visa, stay on b1/b2 instead, yu don't want to fall out because of technical problems
good luck
