    Thank you

    Default Re: Visiting as a Tourist After a J-1 Visa

    There's no reason you can't seek a tourist visa after a J1. If you are under the home residency rule, you will have to leave the U.S. and reenter as a tourist.

    Having an expired J1 is not a basis for seeking permanent residency. You have not given us any facts to consider that might let us assess whether you qualify for any type of employment visa, let alone an immigrant visa.
