Hi!
I am going to be an intern in a US Company for 12 months with a Visa J1 Intern (March 2010). Actually i have two questions:
- 12months is the maximum amount of time I can obtain with this visa, but can I extend it? If yes for how long can I expect my visa to be extended?
- If I apply for a H1B, do I have to go back to my home country to fulfill the application? or can I take the steps to obtain the new visa while I am in the US on my J1 Visa?
If someone knows another solution for my case, let me know.
Thank you for your help!
