Re: Changing from J1 to F1
What do you mean by "I am entitled to the 2 year residency"?
Re: Changing from J1 to F1
on my passport, there is a note that states "the bearer is entitled to two year residency home requirement"; however, in my DS-2019, there is no check mark beside the 2 year residency requirement.
im confused now. Do I need to go back to my home country and stay there for 2 years or can i change my status from j1 to f1 here in the US?
Re: Changing from J1 to F1
If you are subject to the two-year home residency requirement, and it is not waived, you have to reside outside of the U.S. for two years before you will again be eligible for a visa.
