filing extension after J1 waiver?

[brian123]

hello All,

can anyone tell me if its possible to get a J1 extension after the waiver is approved?

thanks

No, J-1 cannot be extended any more afterwards because you have shown immigrant intent (J-1 waiver). You are no longer eligible for any visa except dual intent visas (H/O/L).

Does that mean you are no longer able to even apply for a B1/B2 tourist visa after receiving the waiver?

You have to convince the consulate that you no longer have immigration intent.

No, you still can get B visa. The point is that you can not get F, J beside some others
