f1 would be always a better option, coz the prospect of finishing residency in the U.S. is a gleaming one! Returning back to home country for two years is not! icon_wink.gif

but there is other side to this issue too-

Why J1 ?

The majority of residencies are only available on J1 visa. It is well known to the goverment that a percentage of J1 docs will eventually stay and they have set up the avenues for that to happen.

What risk of being refused a J1 ?

If one abides by the requirements of the visa (doesn't marry a citizen or PR, doesn't file an immigration petition), there is no risk of 'getting stopped at the border' or other nonsense.

Professionals in other industries also come on J1 visas. They just have other options to stay (e.g. by providing a letter from their home goverment that it doesn't object against the person staying in the US). The mess for immigrant physicians is courtesy of the AMA, which persistently lobbied congress to erect artificial barriers to physician immigration.

hey has anyone got some insight on J1 visa wavers?
