我有一位來美國快半年的朋友,她是J1,半年簽證。現在想延期幾個月。學校說她必須到第三國和回國簽證,才能延期。有人說一年J1簽證容易延期。是不是這樣?
-The school is wrong and she can extend her J1 within US if her I-94 has not expired yet. It is very simple perocedure and just need her school International Scholar Office to issue a new DS-2019 form and then, the Office send the application to DOS for approval. That is all.
See this website of Yale University (the procedure is the same for every school):

另外,如必須到第三國,去哪個國家容易?去加拿大或墨西哥要不要簽證?非常感謝!!
