Thanks LucyMo,
Yes, you explained the (similar situation) a while back, but the officer at the embassy gave me a reason to doublecheck.
Anyways, thank you for your effort.
Hello everyone,
My wife (J2) and arrived on my J1 program (Fulbright grant) in USA last month. She is a DV2008 winner (received NL from KCC in May). We weighted the options and decided to go on J1/2. We have 212(e) - 2 year HRR.
I'd like to know:
1. What are the chances, if any, for us to...
Thanks a lot for your answers.
One more question: does it make any difference for J2 EAD application who the sponsor of J1 is? Is there any correlation between the sponsoring organization and Employment Authorization? Are any of the sponsor organizations "blocking" the Employment Authorization...
Hello all
I have a question concerning the ds-156 form and EAD: My wife intends to file for the EAD when we get to US, and we're not sure if she should mention it in her DS-156 form (under No. 32: "Do you intend to work in the U.S.?").
If she writes something like: "Yes, when I get the EAD...
Hello everyone,
I've got a few questions about the J1 & Fulbright related issues:
1. After the "original" Fulbright grant period, there's an option of extension (http://foreign.fulbrightonline.org/current_stages_extension.html): has anyone had experience with extension? And also, has...
I wouldn't be so brave as to call him an idiot. If one takes a bit different perspective (although most people on this forum have one perspective: getting GC, and then US Citizenship), one can understand the action of this man (of course, I presume he didn't actually just cut his card, but...
I've just spoken to the nice lady in the embassy, handling my Fulbright. She said that a GC would exclude me from the Fulbright forever (she even mentioned a guy a few years back that cut his GC so he could go to Fulbright). Anyhow, defering Fulbright is not an option. Either GC, or Fulbright...
Thank you, Baba Aladura, for these valuable and exact pieces of information.
Can you please tell me if the process of defering Fulbright scholarship is straightforward (is there a common practice of defering), and will I have to re-apply for the Fulbright again?
Of course, I've asked the...
So, the only option is for my wife not to recieve J-2, and to get a B1/2? Does she have to file for AOS, or she could go with the CP?
By dragging, I meant that she gets the GC, and that I follow her after 2year HRR, and could my GC obtained by DV still be valid? But I've done some more...
Thanks again, Lucy.
I'm not 100% sure the scholarship I recieved (Fulbright) is funded by US DOS. If anyone is sure, pls let me know, so I know what our chances are...
I might be far off, but it says there is a "No Objection Statement" my government could issue for me to get the waiver for...
Hello Lucy,
According to http://travel.state.gov/visa/temp/types/types_1267.html#12 I am a subject because my scholarship is being financed by US Department of State.
So, is my only chance to get a waiver (http://travel.state.gov/visa/temp/info/info_1296.html)? Or is there another way...
Hello everyone,
My situation is: A month ago, I've recieved a scholarship form US organization and I will be in US from August, 2007 to Mid-May, 2008, with my wife on J1/J2 visas.
Yesterday, my wife recieved DV 2008 notification letter with the case number EU000087XX.
Based on the...
