The J-1 Visa is given to exchange visitors. It is issued with the understanding that at the end of the program you will return to your
country to continue promoting international under-standing. |
|

|
|
Under the terms of the program, you are allowed to serve as a staff person at a summer camp. |
|

|
|
The visa does not allow you to engage in any other employment while in the USA. |
|
|
|
|
The government regulations implemented in 1994 limit your visa to a maximum stay of four months. Your J-1 Visa cannot be extended. |

The white copy of the DS-2019 form sent to you by the International YMCA must be with your passport in order for your J-1 Visa to be valid.
If you lose the DS-2019 form, you should contact the International YMCA immediately for a replacement. The International YMCA charges $50.00 to replace lost DS-2019 forms.

|
The dates on the DS-2019 form govern the length of your stay, not the dates on the J-1 visa in your passport. |
