Hi Ma’am, Good Evening to you. We saw your youtube channel about Immigration in US. I and my wife are both working here in Singapore. 35 and 34 yrs old resepectively. My wife is planning to get the J1 visa (to work as Medical Assistant), she is a Nurse here in Singapore.

Hi there. I am a canadian with a bachelors from a canadian university that graduated in 2019. I have about 1.5-2 years of work experience so I believe I will need to go through the Trainee program. How do I find sponsorships online? Do I just cold call them? Most of the jobs on indeed are intended for people that already have a visa to work within the USA. thank you for this video it helped a lot!
Hello. Yes, it sounds like you would qualify for the Trainee category. In regards to finding positions, online is probably the best way. Just keep looking as not all positions require a work visa. In order to find a sponsor, you can search for one here: j1visa.state.gov/programs I hope this helps!
Many thanks for your great video. Here is a very important and hard question, If i have a bachelor's degree in accounting and graduated from 2 years ago, but i don't have any experience in accounting field (ZERO EXPERIENCE) BUT I HAVE 1 YEAR EXPERIENCE AS A WAITER, so can i apply as a trainee for hospitality program or i must have 5 years in hospitality field because i have a bachelor's degree in accounting??!! 💓
Hello. If you want to be eligible for the hospitality trainee category, you will need the full 5 years of experience in hospitality. Your bachelor's degree in accounting will not qualify you. Good luck!
Hi, I had a doubt regarding sponsorship. Do I have to suggest a sponsor to the employer when the employer doesnt have any? Does the sponsorship fee gets paid by the employer?
Hello, this question is about an Internship. I am currently enrolled full time in College and my program is 2 years college and 2 years university. This means that i will be granted a diploma and a degree at the end of the total 4 years of school. This is in Canada and i got offered a internship offer in the USA. Lastly, i was wondering if a certificate from a post secondary institution and diploma were the same thing
Hello. As different countries have different educational standards, your diploma and degree would have to be evaluated through the application process with a sponsor to ensure it equates to a U.S. post secondary degree.
Can you get a part time job on this program? Does the pay for internee covers living expense? Are we paid over time as a intern? I have a degree in psychology and criminology minor where could I intern?
No, you're not eligible to work a part time job as a J-1 intern. You're only eligible to work for the company listed on your DS-2019 form. The pay varies from company to company. If you would like to discuss the rest of your questions with a personalized consultation, please book through my website: j1visaconsulting.com/
Hi maam! I would like to know something, I have applied for F1 Visa this year but I got rejected. I had applied for exchange visitor program and I have received a placement and I would like to apply for J1 Visa, would I be eligible for j1 without a problem?

Hello mam, I am 2nd year computer engineering student from India and I have applied for Software engineer Internship in US in a well known MNC tech company and If i get selected for internship and I come to us in summer 2022 for 2 months internship program (evetything will be sponsored by the company including housing and plane tickets) after that will I have to wait for 2 years to come to usa again or I can just come again for internship/full time after 2022? Plz reply mam and nice information
Hello Jay, If you will do a 2 month internship on the J-1 visa, you can do another J-1 internship after that without waiting for 2 years. In regards to a full-time job, that should also not be a problem but it does depend on the visa for which you will be applying. I hope this helps!
Hello, thank you for this thorough explanation video. Question: with regard to ensuring your internship is within your academic field of study, how closely aligned does it have to be? I studied Psychological and Behavioural Sciences at university which was an extremely broad degree covering lots of areas of academia: psychology, economics, neurology, business etc.
Hello. I'm glad you found the video helpful! If your degree is general, your transcripts will give a better idea of your course study and a sponsor will evaluate if there is enough correlation between what you studied and what your intended internship will be.

If you have 1 full year of related work experience in addition to your bachelor's degree, then you should be initially eligible for the Trainee category as long as you meet the rest of the criteria as well. Good luck!

Hello Abdulraham, if you have graduated in the past 12 months, you would be eligible for the intern program. You can secure an internship that will help to develop your skills. The costs do vary by sponsor so there is not a specific cost for this program. I hope this helps and good luck in your search!
Thank you for an informative video. I would like to secure a job/internship at a record label. However, I don't have post-secondary degree, are there any other visas available?
You're welcome! In order to qualify for the intern program, you need to be a student or recently graduated within the past 12 months. If you have 5 years of professional and relevant experience you could be eligible for the Trainee program.

Hello. Yes, based on this you would be able to participate in another internship program. A J-1 sponsor will evaluate your entire application to ensure you are still eligible. Good luck!
Hello thank you for explaining this so well. I have not gone to college but I have been working in the Human Resources Department for 6 years now. Do I have a chance at getting a J-1 visa as a trainee?
Hello Giancarlo, there is not a specific website for trainee jobs. You can search for jobs on the website of the companies that you are interested in. Some will be open to support international candidates and others will not. Some sponsors (not all) also help with job placements. Good luck!

Hello Harish. I am unsure of your question here. This does sound like a lot of money, but you can check the list of designated sponsor organizations on the Department of State's website to ensure they are a reputable organization. j1visa.state.gov/participants/how-to-apply/sponsor-search/?program=Intern
Hi, thank you for all the information. So when you say that you must show proof of final means to support yourself while in the U.S. how do you prove that and/or is there a minimum of funds you should have before getting there? Thanks.
Hello. You can show this by printing out your most recent bank account statements. Also, an offer letter from the company that you will be working for reflecting the salary you will be making. The funds should be able to support your cost of living while in the U.S. but it will vary state by state.
@@camaleon18 As I mentioned, it all depends. Different cities have different costs of living and you should be able to support yourself while in the U.S.
Hello Paula, Your second traineeship should build on the skills that you have learned in your first traineeship. If it's in the same department it should be at a higher level. I hope this helps.

Hi again. I'm currently on a J1 trainee program in Florida as a Physical Education Trainee at a school. They have opened initial discussions about changing my focus to social studies rather than PE. Can I change my focus with my agency if I provide evidence of experience and my school adapts my training plan? This isn't set in stone but I thought I'd gather the necessary information. Many thanks
Hello and my apologies for missing your comment. You should discuss with your sponsor, but I would say no, you can't transfer from Physical Education to Social Studies as these are two different subjects and you were issued the J-1 visa to train in PE.
Hi, Thanks for this useful video Currently, I am in a traineeship in the US on a J1 visa, the duration of the traineeship is 18 months. My question is if I can extend my program in the same company? Thanks in advance for your help.
Hi Avery. I have questions for you, hope you can help. My sister was graduated from college last year with an English degree but she has been working as a receptionist at the hotel for a year. So will she be able to apply for J1 visa and what category should she apply for? Can I just apply a job for her at the hotel in the USA, will it secure her as sponsor? Thank you for your time!
Hello. To answer your last question, you shouldn't apply for any job in the U.S. for her. She would need to apply herself. If your sister has graduated more than a year ago she would probably be a Trainee and therefore need to use the background of her college degree to find a job opportunity. Good luck!

Hi, I used to be an Intern at Miami FL. Is it okay if I wanna come back as a Trainee at Miami Florida again but with diff host company and diff position? Or better if different state this time?😊
Hello Rosaleen, the city and state are irrelevant so if you wish to go to Miami, FL again that is fine as long as you are still eligible for the J-1 visa category.
Hello. I am french and turned 38 1 week ago...thé prob is that i wanted to participate in an intern program 2 years ago...but because of covid i couldnt. Do you think i have any chance ?
Hello. I believe the maximum age limit for the Intern program is 35 (unless this has recently changed) so you would not be eligible for this category. Perhaps you can try for the Trainee category if you have enough years of experience. Good luck.

As I have seen that health occupations are listed but it also says any activities that involved patient care are not allowed. So , does pharmacy applicable for this trainee programme or not? I need your help
Your work experience would also have to be in your field of study in order to qualify for the Trainee category. And correct, you cannot have any patient contact.
@@dmnlzylzy1748 I can't definitively tell you yes or no. If your retail experience is in Pharmacy Retail, that will help count towards the visa requirement. Good luck!
Dear. what trainee program do you recommend for someone who has a masters degree in English and I'm currently working in translation and business field.
Hello. You would need to have a job that directly correlates with your field of study (English) and also your current work. Since English is very broad, many different jobs would be applicable. The most important thing is that it is related to your educational background and where you are currently working. I hope this helps!

It would be very nice if you could make a video explaining the process that people who want internships should follow.
@@mohamedzakaria7394 If you're interested in a hospitality internship you should find hospitality companies (hotels, resorts, etc.) by a Google search. For example "Hotels in Florida". Then make a list of the hotels you would like to work for. Then research each hotel and explore their website and their Careers page to see if they have internship opportunities available. In addition, you should contact your university's internship/student work office to see if they have any partnerships with American companies. You can also check out job board websites (Indeed.com, LinkedIn.com as they are great for looking for jobs too.) Good luck and stay tuned for the video that I'll make about this!

Hello Jay, If you will do a 2 month internship on the J-1 visa, you can do another J-1 internship after that without waiting for 2 years. In regards to a full-time job, that should also not be a problem but it does depend on the visa for which you will be applying. I hope this helps!
Hello, thank you for this thorough explanation video.
Question: with regard to ensuring your internship is within your academic field of study, how closely aligned does it have to be? I studied Psychological and Behavioural Sciences at university which was an extremely broad degree covering lots of areas of academia: psychology, economics, neurology, business etc.
Hello. I'm glad you found the video helpful! If your degree is general, your transcripts will give a better idea of your course study and a sponsor will evaluate if there is enough correlation between what you studied and what your intended internship will be.
I am a pharmacist, I want to go to the USA for a clinical pharmacy internship or trainee. Can you elaborate, what should I do for this, if you help me, I shall be very thankful for this act.
I graduated in September in hospitality this year and plan to do internship in Denmark for 1 year, after that I will have 1 year experience but my graduation proof will be more than a year at that time then am i eligible for J1 Trainee program? Tks in advance!
If you have 1 full year of related work experience in addition to your bachelor's degree, then you should be initially eligible for the Trainee category as long as you meet the rest of the criteria as well. Good luck!
Thank you very much for explaining this so well.
Quick question, do unpaid placements count towards the minimum 1 year of relevant experience? Or does it have to be full employment?
Thanks I’m advance.
Hello. If it's work it should count, even if you didn't get paid. If you were receiving academic credit then this probably won't count.

Hi,I need a quick of advice, I'm a J1 trainee with maximun of 18 months as as Paraeducator in a certain school. How can I extend my year in the US? How can I proces the waiver?
Hello. If you've already reached the maximum duration of stay for the trainee program, you will need to depart the U.S. after your grace period or switch to a new U.S. visa.
Hi ! I have red somewhere that before you go to the consular office you have to know your right,where may I read those right /how can I know my right/what are rights they are talking about?
Hello Godfrey, I am not sure what rights you are referring to.
What if you’re self employed but have the necessary work experience how do you go about that
You should contact your J-1 visa sponsor for specific requirements which can include tax returns or client contracts.
Hi.question: I have graduated in college and get the Master Degree(Financial), and having been working for a financial company for 2-3years till now, may I ask am eligible for the intern/trainee program in USA? Looking forward to your reply and thanks for that
Hello. Since it's been a few years since you graduated you wouldn't be eligible for the Intern program, but you might be eligible for the Trainee program if you meet the rest of the requirements.
Is J1 Visa the appropriate visa for me to attend a sponsored Summer leadership training for teachers in the US?
Thanks.
Hello. I don't have enough information here. You can check the qualifications for the Trainee category to see if it would apply. Good luck.
I'm from Iraq and I've just graduated from the Department of English and I have a bachelor's degree. Could I get this opportunity and develop my skills of education? And what about the cost?
Could you reply please? 💙
Hello Abdulraham, if you have graduated in the past 12 months, you would be eligible for the intern program. You can secure an internship that will help to develop your skills. The costs do vary by sponsor so there is not a specific cost for this program. I hope this helps and good luck in your search!
@@j-1visaconsulting258 Thank you 💙
Thank you for an informative video. I would like to secure a job/internship at a record label. However, I don't have post-secondary degree, are there any other visas available?
You're welcome! In order to qualify for the intern program, you need to be a student or recently graduated within the past 12 months. If you have 5 years of professional and relevant experience you could be eligible for the Trainee program.

Hey thank you for explaining, I have got J1 (camp counselor) visa to travel to the US this year, I am wondering if I can swich it to J1 internship visa after finishing the camp program). I am a MSc student in the final year and my university require from me to complete internship before I can graduate. Thanks alot ❤
This is generally only allowed with extenuating circumstances but you will have to discuss this with your sponsor.
Hi,
Thank you for all the explanations about j1 visa. But I still have a question.
I am an international medical graduate and recently accepted in J1 clinical research trainee. Does that mean I have stay atleast 2 years in my home country, even I got accepted in J1 physician program or H1B next year?
Your DS-2019 and J-1 visa will note if you're subject to the 212(e) rule after the consular appointment.
Does the company need to be an approved organization.
Yes, the company that you plan to work at needs to be vetted and approved by the J-1 visa sponsor.

I didn't ask for funding from my organization. Should I get an F1 Visa or J1 Visa ?
Hello Prathesa, if you will be studying you can do a F-1 visa. If you will be researching you can do a J-1 visa. Good luck!

Hello. Yes, based on this you would be able to participate in another internship program. A J-1 sponsor will evaluate your entire application to ensure you are still eligible. Good luck!
Hello thank you for explaining this so well. I have not gone to college but I have been working in the Human Resources Department for 6 years now. Do I have a chance at getting a J-1 visa as a trainee?
You're welcome! Yes, if you have more than 5 years of experience in the field and you're looking to do a trainee-ship this should be fine.
How do I find J1 trainee jobs? Is there a website specifically for those? Most trainee jobs are usually for US people only. Help!
Hello Giancarlo, there is not a specific website for trainee jobs. You can search for jobs on the website of the companies that you are interested in. Some will be open to support international candidates and others will not. Some sponsors (not all) also help with job placements. Good luck!

Hello Harish. I am unsure of your question here. This does sound like a lot of money, but you can check the list of designated sponsor organizations on the Department of State's website to ensure they are a reputable organization. j1visa.state.gov/participants/how-to-apply/sponsor-search/?program=Intern
Hi, thank you for all the information. So when you say that you must show proof of final means to support yourself while in the U.S. how do you prove that and/or is there a minimum of funds you should have before getting there? Thanks.
Hello. You can show this by printing out your most recent bank account statements. Also, an offer letter from the company that you will be working for reflecting the salary you will be making. The funds should be able to support your cost of living while in the U.S. but it will vary state by state.
@@j-1visaconsulting258 so if I’d be making let’s say $2,500 of salary in the US, I should have that in my bank account or more? Thank you.

Hello! Can I still apply for a second traineeship in the same department (f&b) but in different host company?

Hi again. I'm currently on a J1 trainee program in Florida as a Physical Education Trainee at a school. They have opened initial discussions about changing my focus to social studies rather than PE. Can I change my focus with my agency if I provide evidence of experience and my school adapts my training plan? This isn't set in stone but I thought I'd gather the necessary information. Many thanks
Hello and my apologies for missing your comment. You should discuss with your sponsor, but I would say no, you can't transfer from Physical Education to Social Studies as these are two different subjects and you were issued the J-1 visa to train in PE.
Hi Andrew,did you apply directly to the school?
Hey! how long usually takes the process to get a j1 visa? can be done in 3 months?
Hello. Visa application times vary by visa sponsor. It can potentially be done in 3 months. Good luck!
Hi, Thanks for this useful video
Currently, I am in a traineeship in the US on a J1 visa, the duration of the traineeship is 18 months.
My question is if I can extend my program in the same company?

Hello Gustavo. You will be unable to extend as 18 months is the maximum duration for the Trainee category of the J-1 visa.
Hi I'm from South Africa and I am so interested in applying for this program but my question is "how do I get the form and how to I send it to them?"
Hi Avery. I have questions for you, hope you can help. My sister was graduated from college last year with an English degree but she has been working as a receptionist at the hotel for a year. So will she be able to apply for J1 visa and what category should she apply for?
Can I just apply a job for her at the hotel in the USA, will it secure her as sponsor?
Thank you for your time!
Hello. To answer your last question, you shouldn't apply for any job in the U.S. for her. She would need to apply herself. If your sister has graduated more than a year ago she would probably be a Trainee and therefore need to use the background of her college degree to find a job opportunity. Good luck!
hello ....if I graduate this july month ..then can I apply j1 visa as trainee just after graduation??? And do they ask for graduation degree or any certificate...if i apply visa

Hello. I am french and turned 38 1 week ago...thé prob is that i wanted to participate in an intern program 2 years ago...but because of covid i couldnt. Do you think i have any chance ?

Hellow is two years rule also prevent someone to go back to j1 for a secound time before staying at his/her home country?i mean can someone aply again before those two years?

Does 6-month technical diploma certificate make me meet the eligibility requirement?
Note: I had a bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering 3 years ago. but I want to apply using the diploma to meet the qualification (recently graduated).

@@mohamedzakaria7394 If you're interested in a hospitality internship you should find hospitality companies (hotels, resorts, etc.) by a Google search. For example "Hotels in Florida". Then make a list of the hotels you would like to work for. Then research each hotel and explore their website and their Careers page to see if they have internship opportunities available. In addition, you should contact your university's internship/student work office to see if they have any partnerships with American companies.
