J-1 Visa

The J-1 Visa is a type of non-immigrant visa for individuals participating in work-and-study based exchange programs in the United States. It is often used by students, researchers, and professionals seeking to gain experience, conduct research, or teach. The J-1 program promotes cultural exchange by allowing participants from various countries to share their knowledge and skills in the U.S. and vice versa. Each J-1 visa category has specific eligibility requirements and may include limitations on work and duration of stay, typically lasting from a few months to several years depending on the program.
