H1b签证没中,现在在国内面临续签的问题!
半个月前回到国内,刚刚得知工作签证没抽中,现在还是j1身份,2019表是三年期,现在是第二年。入境签证马上要过期,所以要去续签。我的问题是,续签有可能被拒绝吗?最重要的是,如果给了签证,这个签证会又附带两年服务期吗?
主要迷惑是,j1的豁免是针对2019表这个项目的,是不是应该和J1入境签证没有什么关系?毕竟我没有换项目,只是回国过暑假,再续签。
但网上有人说,再签j1,用新签证入境,就又有一个两年服务期了。请明白人指教一下吧!谢谢!

As for transfers, the Foreign Affairs Manual does not specifically prohibit a J-1 visitor from transferring between one program sponsor and another after receiving the DOS's waiver recommendation. If, however, the planned transfer would lead to an extension of the J-1 program end date, the transfer will not be allowed. Also, once your waiver is approved by DOS, you will no longer be able to get a J-1 visa from a foreign U.S. embassy for travel back and forth as a J-1. (If you don’t wish to travel, then you will be fine as long as you have your J-1 program end date extended.)
