4. Intern/Trainee’s Requirements

● The U.S. Government has decided to do away with the speciality/Non Speciality categories. The Categories are now “J1 Intern” and “J1 Trainee”.

● J1 Interns : Must be post secondary students currently studying outside of the United States or university graduates who have been out of school for no more than 12 months. This program can be repeated as long as they maintain student status or begin the internship within 12 months of graduation. Internship must be related to the participant’s field of study.

● J1 Trainees : Must have a university degree or professional certificate from a foreign institution AND at least one year or additional related work experience outside of the U.S. in the field of training. Trainee will be allowed to stay in the US for up to 18 months, with the exception of Hospitality trainees who are limited to programs of 2 months or less. Exchange visitors who will be pursing training in business management at hotel will be allowed to train for up to 18 months. (For example, Human Resources or Marketing Training Program at a hotel or restaurant would qualify as 18 months Business Trainings as long as the trainee has prior management experience.)

● The Training program will be repeatable, but the exchange visitor must be absent from the U.S. for at least two years before applying for another J1 Trainee Visa.

● There is no limit to the number of times an exchange visitor may participate in a training or internship program as long as they continue to meet the selection criteria. The training or internship must not duplicate the participant’s prior work experience or training. It must expand upon their previous knowledge and skills.

● There is now standardized format for Trainee/Intern plans. The applicant and their employer will complete a form called the DS7002, which must then be signed by the applicant and NPO before the DS2019 form can be issued. The DS7002 is an official government document. Programs must not duplicate the participant’s prior work experience or training received elsewhere.

● Training and internship program must be a fulltime. A minimum of 32 hours per week is required for all exchange visitors.

● A rotation through departments is still highly encouraged in the Trainee/Intern plans. Hospitality trainees, whose programs are six months or longer must rotate through 3 or more departments.

● Applicants must be interviewed by CE/NPO.

● All J1 Trainee/Intern applicants must also be tested for English proficiency using either 1) a recognized English Language Test such as TOEFL, 2)signed documentation from an academic institution or English language school, or 3) a documented interview conducted by NPO or partner organization.

5. Information about J1 Visa Internship/Training program What is the J-1 visa?
The “”J”” exchange visitor program (J-1 visa) is designed to promote the interchange of persons, knowledge, and skills in a variety of fields. Participants include trainees obtaining on-the-job training with firms and many other international visitors coming for the purpose of travel, observation, training, sharing, or demonstrating specialized knowledge or skills, or participating in organized people-to-people programs.

6. What is the DS-2019?
The DS-2019, formerly the IAP-66, is the official government document that NPOs issue to all accepted trainees and interns. The participant brings the DS-2019 form to the U.S. embassy or consulate in her/his home country to apply for the J-1 visa. The form states the field in which the participant is authorized to undergo training or internship and lists the dates of the program. This is a very important document that identifies NPOs as the sponsoring organization and will be necessary for the participant to enter the United States even after the J-1 visa has been issued.6. The History of Cultural Exchange in the United States The United States Information and Educational Exchange Act (Smith-Mundt Act) was passed in 1948 and set up the framework for exchange visitor programs. The act was subsequently incorporated into and broadened under the Mutual Education and Cultural Exchange Act of 1961 (Fulbright-Hayes Act). The purpose of this Act is to increase mutual understanding between the people of the United States and people of other countries by means of educational and cultural exchange. This act is a cornerstone of United States public diplomacy, and an integral component of foreign policy today. When these exchange programs began, recruitment was limited to Western European countries. In 1995, the federal government expanded the programs to allow participants from all countries where the U.S. maintains a normal diplomatic relationship.”
