About the J1 Visa
The J1 visa was created by the U.S. government to offer foreign university students and young professionals the opportunity to live and work in the USA for a limited period of time to foster cultural exchange. The J1 visa is a non-immigrant visa under the Exchange Visitor Program. You can read more about the Exchange Visitor Program at the U.S. Department of State website.
Why do you need a J1 sponsor organization like Intrax?
- The U.S. Department of State requires interns and trainees to work through a J1 visa sponsor agency during the visa application process.
- The U.S. Department of State wants to ensure that all requirements are met prior to the J1 visa interview at the embassy.
- Intrax screens the participants and the host companies according to J1 visa regulations.
- Intrax then issues the DS-2019 form, which the participant has to present at the U.S. embassy in order to apply for the actual J1 visa.
