Hi all
I have been reading about the second J1 progras. My situation is a sort of confusing right now.
I am a non-medical J1 scholar. My husband is in J2 and has a job.
My waiver process is right now at the last but one stage.. Waiting for DOS recommendation. I can take ages....
I have also applied for advisory opinion.
Meanwhile, my husband's company has filed a H1 B for him along with the crowd of 150,000.
Since everything has become lottery, there is less than 50% chance for my husband to get H1B even of the DOS recommendation gets through.
My J1 is upto June 2008. Since I have applied for waiver, I cannot get J1 extensions anymore.
My questions are
1. Can I get to enter a new J1 program sponsored by the same university? so that it maintains my husband's status too.
2. If so, even if I get a waiver for this J1, it becomes void if the next J1 is subject to HRR. Am I right?
Kindly give me suggestions to extend my say here. If not with h1 but with J.
Thanks
