Legal Question in Immigration Law in Texas

Re: can I get waiver to convert my J1 status into F1

Some research will be required to determine if, in fact, you are subject to the 2 year foreign residence requirement. if you are subject to the requirement, a waiver may be possible depending on whether or not you received any government funding in connection with your J-1 program.

I recommend that you consult with competent immigration counsel who is familiar with J-1 waivers. Our immigration practice is national in scope and we would be happy to assist you in this process.

Responding to this inquiry in no way establishes an attorney client relationship; however, I look forward to exploring these issues with you further by way of telephone or in-person consultation.
