J1 Waivers are issued each year by the thousands of which many are to international
medical graduates. This allows them to enter the United States and attend residency and
fellowship programs for advanced medical training under the Immigration and Nationality Act. Once they have completed that training, all of
those physicians are required to return to their home countries to fulfill the two-year home residency
requirement that is a requirement of their J1 Waiver physician job status. However, a waiver of that two-year home
residency requirement can be obtained for physicians who have a qualified sponsoring employer in a qualifying HPSA and an
interested government agency. Once a J1 or H1b waiver is obtained, the physician is eligible to apply for a visa
status change that will allow them to remain and practice in the United States.
Exchange visitors coming under the J-1 Waiver program for graduate medical education and/or training must meet certain special requirements. They include having passed the Foreign Medical
Graduate Examination in Medical Sciences, demonstrating competency in English and are subject to time limits on the duration of their program. Physicians coming to the United States on exchange visitor programs for the purpose of observation,
consultation, teaching, or research in which there is little or no patient care are not subject to the aforementioned requirements.
The process of obtaining a
J1 physician waiver is extraordinarily complex. The obstacles to success are so daunting, and the process so
time consuming, that most eligible employers will not even attempt to sponsor a J-1 waiver job application
on their own. Even with the assistance of an immigration lawyer, successfully obtaining a waiver
is far from assured. The number of available waivers is extremely limited, so the competition is
formidable. But don't let these harsh realities stand in the way of your dreams. We are to help you see those dreams come true.
