As soon as InterSwop will receive the DS-2019 order form and the processing
fee of Euro 60,- (or equivalent in other currency) in cash or online
with PayPal or by money transfer with Western Union, your DS-2019 application
will be forwarded to the USA on the same day. You will be informed
within the next 48-72 hours by email from the USA about the next steps
to issue the DS-2019 form, also how and when you have to pay the USD
550/690/890 issuing fee.
The DS-2019 form will be issued in the USA. This lasts about 30-45 days
depending on the postal mail duration and how soon you or your host
company in the US could provide all necessary data.
Generally you need to provide a CV in English, one reference letter
in English, information about the insurance during your stay in the
US. And your host company needs to provide a training plan (DS-7002).
You and your host company will receive detail information about these
items by email.
The applicant receives his DS-2019 form via UPS or FedEx.
Now the applicant can apply for the J1 visa at the nearest US consulate/embassy.
You have to go personally to the US Embassy and you have to get an appointment
beforehand. The next available appointment could be in several weeks
ahead. You should apply for a personal appointment at the US consulate/embassy
by time! The visa issue will last about approx. another 2 weeks.
You should initiate the whole DS-2019 and J1-visa procedure by time.
The best would be with a lead time of about 3 month before planned departure
to the USA. Unfortunately many applicants are applying very late and
also booked a flight to the US without having ensured to obtain the
J1-visa by time.
Any questions left? Please feel free to ask us!
