USCIS News – J-1 exchange visitors

Certain J-1 exchange visitors are subject to a 2-year home residence requirement; meaning, they must reside and be physically present in their “home country” for an aggregate of at least two (2) years before they are eligible to apply for an immigrant visa, adjustment of status, or a nonimmigrant visa in H, L, or K classification.

Further, these exchange visitors are prohibited from changing their status to certain other nonimmigrant classifications.
