Hi there
I am in the USA on a J1 visa which expires in april 2010. I currently am working as a graphic designer and my employer is willing to sponsor me on a H1B. The 'two year rule' does not apply to me, so I'm wondering if it will be necessary for me to head back to my home country- Australia- to apply/change visas?
I have not started the H1B application process yet, and I would be very grateful if someone could give me an idea on how long it can take to process. Do you think the 6 months I have left in USA is enough time?
If anyone can point me in the direction of a good place to start (immigration attorney etc) would be much appreciated
Thanks!
Krystie
