J 1 Visa Waiver Options

Summary

J-1 visa holders may seek a waiver of the two-year home residency requirement through USCIS. Options include a no-objection statement from the home country, fear of persecution, or exceptional hardship to U.S. Citizen or permanent resident relatives. If the I-140 petition is approved, adjustment of status to a Green Card holder may be possible with a waiver. Consider applying for a different visa type, like an F-1 student visa, but be aware of potential complications due to J-1 status. Consult with an immigration lawyer for personalized guidance.
