2026年1月21日,由于Advisory Opinion需要6-8周才能回复,我们决定直接提交正式的J-1 waiver(NOS)。
SoR:I am currently employed by 单位名 as a 职位名. I am in J-1 exchange visitor status beginning 月日年. As indicated on my DS-2019, I am subject to the two-year home residence requirement under INA 212(e).

My spouse has approved employment-based immigrant petitions, and under applicable immigration law, any INA 212(e) requirement must be resolved before further immigration processes may proceed. I will apply for a No Objection Statement through my home country, and the Chinese Embassy will submit the statement directly to the Department of State in accordance with established procedures. ..

4月1日。首先更正一个小错误,付申请费用的是money order不是cashier's check。今天查询了一下,发现那个money order 2月2日已经被支取了。所以发了以下邮件给212ewaiver@state.gov问询: Dear Sir or Madam, I am a Chinese citizen applying for a J-1 waiver, and I am writing to inquire about the status of my case. My application is under Case No. *******. I mailed my application package on January 22, 2026, and according to FedEx tracking, it was delivered in Earth City, Missouri, on January 30, 2026, and signed for by ***.. Χ The package included a $120.00 money order (Serial No. **********) for the application fee. I have confirmed with my bank that the money order has already been cashed on February 2, 2026. However, my case still does not appear in the online case status system. In addition, I was informed by the Chinese Embassy in the United States yesterday, that they have issued and sent a No Objection Statement to your office. I understand that it may take some time for this document to be reflected in your system.. 1point 3 acres At this time, I would simply like to confirm whether my application package has been received, and whether any additional documents, corrections, or actions are needed from me.. If necessary, I would be happy to provide any additional information. Thank you very much for your time and assistance.

1)J-1两年服务的目的是保护人员来源国的,也就是说,原则上J-1持有人是其祖国派来学习的,理应回国支援国家。但事实上,现在(至少在中国)大部分J-1只是名义上由国家派遣,实质上是个人的学习和工作身份。对于这样的case,如果自己的祖国(也就是中国大使馆)不反对J-1持有人不回国(No objective statement,NOS),他/她就可以留下来;而假如其祖国不同意J-1持有人不回国,但美国方面(比如其资助者)希望他/她继续留下来工作,他/她也可以走Interested Government Agency(IGA)途径留下来。这就是这两条途径的区别。目前中国的政策和态度是“来去自由”,绝大多数J-1持有人(除签约外派人员、公派留学人员、明确有国内财务关系未结算者等外)都可以通过NOS途径进行豁免。
