I attend two –year program at a school. Last year, I got J1 visa with “two years residence requirements on my visa”. I went back last summer and apply for new visa to the same program (same sponsor), but I got J1 Visa with “two year rule does not apply” on my visa now.
My employer wants to help me get H1B visa, but do I have to serve the two year requirement or I am not subject to it?
Thank you very much
Lee.

Unfortunately you are stuck with the 2 year HHR. There is little you can do about it. Wish I could help more.

Lee - is this a waiver position following your residency? ___________________ bbb - trying to combine common sense and humour into realistic answers, but not going to guess on anyone's chances of getting into a position....
