K1 visa after short term J1.. 2 year rule

[Britingermany 4]

I've lost my DS-2019s for two short term work visas I had and was worried about the 2 year rule. As I understand it the 2 year rule doesn't apply for short term J1 visa's only the standard ones...

I'm now in the final stages of the K1 process, interview in 2 weeks, in my passport I have 2 short term J1 scholarship visas from 3 weeks teaching on a course in the US.

Will this be an issue? Or will this have already been checked either at the embassy or the NVC? I did list my visa and numbers on my DS160.

Has anyone any experience of this?

Further to this, I just realized I made a mistake on the DS160.. I listed my second to last visa, not my last.

I’m worried about the 2 year home residency rule.

If it applies to this visa.

What should I do? Email Frankfurt updating?

I have my interview scheduled for the 18^tH Feb

Thanks

If you are subjected to 2 year home residency rule, it would be reflected in your J1 visa stamp pasted in your passport.

So check your passport now.

Brilliant.. Thanks do not have that.

My mistake was...

Under 'Previous US visas'.. I just listed one, and picked the first.. when you print it out the question is 'Last US visa'..

Anyway retrieved the DS160 and resubmitted and emailed and hard mailed the confirmation pages in to the embassy, so hopefully it won't cause a delay...

Just to update, had my DS2019 emailed and according to that I'm not subject to rule 212e, boxes on both DS2019's both clearly indicate not subject... huge relief...
