Understanding & Navigating the J-1 Two-Year Home Residence Requirement

Do you have questions about J-1 two year home residence requirement (212e)? Are you subject to 212e? If yes, what does it mean to you? To explore these issues more and learn how to fulfil the 212e requirement, join us for an immigration information session with Attorney Suzanne Seltzer. If you are currently in J-1 status in the Student and Scholar (all but Alian Physician) categories, or the J-1 visa may be a visa option for you in the near future, this session is for you! After this session, you will have the information you need to plan ahead and navigate your immigration to continue your academic endeavors in the U.S.
Note: The session will NOT cover the Conrad 30 waiver for J-1 ECFMG Alian Physicians.
