高分悬赏!!!关于美国J1签证的问题,标注 BEARER NOT SUBJ TO 212(E) REQUIREMENTS,是什么意思呢
212(e)是美国移民局的条款,简单地说,你的DS-2019上有两项:
1.Not subject to the two-year residence requirement
2.Subject to two-year residence requirement
如果移民官钩选了2的话,你在J1期满后必须回到居住国住满两年以上,才能以H,L或绿卡等移民或可移民身份再进入美国。但你可以在两年内以J,F等非移民身份再进入美国。这就是212(e)条款的规定。
你的签证上注明的是 not subject to 212(e) requirement意思就是你不受212(e)条款的约束。也就是说你可以在任何时间以任何身份再次进入美国。
