J-1 Visa ban lifted

A recent Federal court order has been issued, lifting the J-1 Visa ban of June 2020 for new J-1 Internship/Traineeship programs. The recent preliminary injunction was released on October 1, 2020, allowing the issuing of new J-1 visas of diverse categories, including the Internship and Traineeship programs. 
Although this is a great step forward, there are still several regional travel restrictions in place since March 2020 (Source: Travel Restrictions). These travel restrictions are independent of your ability to obtain a J-1 visa. We, however, are already accepting new J-1 visa applicants with starting dates in 2020 and 2021. You can apply through our application form in order to schedule your intake free of charge. During this intake you will get the latest visa options available to you, and you can start up the process accordingly.
