Hello
I am on a J visa for my fellowship and am looking for J waiver jobs. My fellowship end date is Jul 31. By what time frame should I be looking to sign a contract to safely complete the J waiver process? I am applying now to states that have no cut off date for filing waiver applications under the Conrad 30.I do not want to commit to a job which I might be miserable doing, just because I am rushed into it afraid of missing a deadline. Many of the places I applied to have called me for interviews in Jan. I hope that is not too late?


Thanks

You should get on with the process quickly. Remember that once you are sponsored for a Conrad waiver, your case will have to go through both the State Department and the USCIS, and you will have to change your status to H-1B, all before July 31st.
