Hi,
I came to US on JAN2007 in J1 visa to work for US Dept of Health. I worked for 2.5 years.Then recently moved to another university with as a research associate with J1 status.It is my 3rd year in J1. The university issued a new DS-2019 form extending up to Sep2010. Hopefully it will extended after 2010 also.
2year home country residency rule will apply for me.So applied for NORI certificates from indian govt. Received all the three letters.I haven't sent yet either to indian embassy nor to USIC to get the waiver.Probably i will send it by 2010 april.
By the time my wife with J2 visa applied for EAD and working as a non-paid volunteer worker for the US dept. of health.
I red somewhere states that 2year home country residency rule will apply for J2 dependent also
Now she is going to india for visiting her parents with expired(2009 jan) J2 visa but with valid DS-2019 from issued by the university from which i am working right now.
How easy or hard her j2 visa get renewed in india?
Any other documents do she need to carry with her to get new J2 visa?
Suggestion please...
Thanks in advance
Paul
