I have applied for j1 waiver and is still in incipient stages.
The state of GA has to approve to go to DOS.
I think it is going to take good 3-4 months.
I have also applied for extension of j visa and i am granted for 5 more months.
meanwhile, I would like to go to my home country and return in 20 days.
My Q is what are the risks involved in travelling once I have applied for the waiver.
(I am not sure if the port is going to let me in due to the change in intention(curse of j1) and applying for H1B rather than going to home country).
I have a valid visa and ds2019 which should not be problem.
Also, what are the problems involved in travelling after obtaining a j1 waiver and while on h1B( say a year from now).
Thank you.
