Can I change from J-1 to O-1 without meeting the home residency requirement or getting a waiver?
You can apply for the O-1 category and, upon receipt of the approval notice, you will be required to obtain the O-1 Visa at a U.S. consulate abroad.
I have answered my H1B Extension RFE with Rajiv's office. They were great in getting the work done and respond back quickly from their side. They will also answer very promptly for any immigration or rfe document related questions. I would like to say specially thanks to Jagbir... who did a great job on his part and answered all the questions in detail. His timely updates & and his timely emails reminding the timelines are really very appreciable. Thanks for all the effort --- Venkat
