    J-1 Waivers

    No Objection Statement as a Basis for Waiver Recommendation

    Your home country’s government may provide a No Objection Statement through its embassy in Washington, DC. This statement, sent directly to the Waiver Review Division, must confirm that your government has no objection to you not fulfilling the two-year home-country physical presence requirement and to the possibility of you obtaining lawful permanent residency in the United States.

    Alternatively, a designated ministry within your home government can issue the No Objection Statement and send it to the U.S. Chief of Mission, Consular Section at the U.S. Embassy in that country. The U.S. Embassy will then forward it to the Waiver Review Division for further processing.

    Important Note: U.S. law prohibits foreign medical physicians who obtained a J-1 visa on or after January 10, 1977, for graduate medical education or training from using this waiver option. For more details, refer to U.S. Laws, Reference Number 1.
