Will I be guaranteed a J1 Cultural Exchange Visa?2019-11-07T16:56:15+00:00

No, there is no guarantee that you will be granted a J1 Visa at the US Embassy. We ensure that each participant has the necessary documents for their visa interview and assist in appealing any visa denial decisions. The Embassy wants to know you will return to your home country following the training in America and it is your responsibility to take all necessary documents with you to your visa interview.
