Now, if you DO NOT want to return to Canada for that ‘‘two year’’ requirement, then you CAN stay in the U.S. if you agree to go and work as a physician in a rural/underserviced area in the U.S. for 3-5 years. But unfortunately the J-1 waiver is not that easy to get, especially if your home country is a first-world country. Also if you do get a waiver you can’t choose where you go, the INS places you somewhere. . .so say hello to Granite Peak, Montana or Kearney, Nebraska or Star City, Arkansas.

But the kicker is, that as a Canadian you won’t be able to get a waiver. Because to get the waiver you would have to get a ‘no objection’ letter from Canada, and Canada will not issue you this document. I know of many Canadians who did residency in the U.S. on J-1, then tried everything they could to stay in the U.S., but they were not able to. So they had to go back to Canada and live at home with their parents for two years.

In my personal opinion this visa should be called the N-1 visa. ‘N’ for nightmare. Because as a Canadian, it means that you will most likely lose two years. Why? Because after you complete residency in the U.S. you must go back to Canada for two years. And when you return to Canada for that two years you cannot practice medicine.

Why? Because Canada does not accept the USMLE, Canada does not accept the ECFMG certificate. To work in Canada as a doctor you would have to do the ENTIRE Canadian certification process all over again. That's right, you would have to write MCCEE, MCCQE Part 1, MCCQE Part 2, AND the board exams for the residency that you did in the United States.更多精彩文章及讨论，请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net

  • 枫下茶话 / 美国话题 / 请问，加拿大公民去美国作博后的话（H1或J1签证），是否象F1和TN一样直接去POE申请？还是需要先预约再到领事馆去申请签证才能走？ -onlyi(onlyi); 2006-9-17 {109} (#3211651@0)
    好像记得谁提到H1似乎可以，但是我搜索一下找不到以前的有关帖子，如果是J1呢情况有什么不同么？博后能TN么？ 谢谢。
    • 拿着J1的表(DS1029?)到POE申请. 还有, J1的表, 收到后要先check in SEVI, 交$100, 表和交款收据一起才有效. TN当然可以, 不过, 一般的大学办J, H轻车熟路, 不一定愿意办TN. -poohbear(毛毛熊); 2006-9-17 (#3212713@0)
      • 大学要看, 还是有HR知道办TN的, 何况办TN又快又省事 -edmontonzju(猫); 2006-9-17 (#3212764@0)
        • 当然不同学校可能不一样. 我工作过的大学办J1两周, H1四周(他们不收quota限制), 都是international office 批量办的. TN因为没办过, 所以要先跟律师和工会商量, 系里嫌麻烦. HR什么都不管. -poohbear(毛毛熊); 2006-9-18 (#3214549@0)

      • 加拿大公民豁免不成问题, 可以到NIS网上查J1豁免专业表, 我还没发现加拿大公民有需要豁免的专业, 同样, 也没发现中国公民有不用豁免的专业. -poohbear(毛毛熊); 2006-9-18 (#3214520@0)
    • 谢谢楼上各位，还想请问，对加拿大人，J1是多长有效？ ＭｕｌｔｉＥｎｔｒｉｅｓ么？除了豁免的问题还有什么不利的因素么？要尽快在ＴＮ和Ｊ１之间马上做个选择了。 -onlyi(onlyi); 2006-9-20 (#3218387@0)
      • 还有一个差别就是收入的税收问题. 不过具体的我也不知道. 我只能想到这个topic -edmontonzju(猫); 2006-9-20 (#3218660@0)
      • J1拿D/S的I94, 有效期由DS1029(?)决定, 因为不用签证, 所以没有entries限制. 我个人理解J1最多可以拿三年, 但是见过别人拿J1读四五年PHD的, 也许有通融. 税收上面, 好处是不交social security & medicare, 坏处非居民, 跟F1一样. -poohbear(毛毛熊); 2006-9-20 (#3218752@0)
        • 那我要是回中国后再返回美国怎么办，要预先申请J1签证才能返回美国么？ 还是拿着护照和I94直接进来？ 要是I94在离开美国的时候已经被收走了咋办？ 请赐教 -onlyi(onlyi); 2006-9-20 (#3219028@0)
          • 这个就不知道了. anyway, good luck! -poohbear(毛毛熊); 2006-9-21 (#3220715@0)
            • 谢谢，决定TN了，免得事到临头才发现J1会带来什么麻烦。反正也就是混一两年过渡一下。 -onlyi(onlyi); 2006-9-21 (#3220782@0)
              • 你说的I94的问题, TN和H1同样存在... Anyway, being a Canadian, you have much less to worry about ^_^ -poohbear(毛毛熊); 2006-9-21 (#3220942@0)
