Hi,

I've applied for a J1 visa on June 1st, and my research fellowship start date was July 5th, but my visa is delayed due to administrative processing.

My employer is telling me that if I didnt get the visa within 90 days of the start date, the whole visa application will be cancelled along with the sevis/DS2019. and if that is true, Im screwed.

but I cant find this piece of info anywhere on the web ?? is it true? does anyone experienced such a delay and everything worked out? and how?

thx

Why would it be on the web?

Presumably they sent you an e mail.

“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”

I mean I cant find anything about what my program told me that if 90 days pass from the start date of the program and the visa isnt issued yet, they have to -by law- to cancel my SEVIS/DS 2019.

So I tried google to see what I can find about that subject, not about my situation itself, but couldnt find anything.

Does it matter? It is not as if they are going to get into a discussion about it.
