ask her to send you a scan of the j-1 visa stamp from inside the passport,

then you study it

looking for 2Y HRR wording in the stamp itself.

Report back, when able, as the existence of this annotation is the bit that makes the difference.

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !
Ya know, you can find the answer to your question with the advanced search tool, when using a PC? Ditch the handphone, come back later on a PC, and try again.

She has already been home for over two years. I am unsure about whether she can have the au pair visa twice even though she already extended the first time she had it.

I don't know what her scan says... But I am not worried about the two year home requirement as she has been home for two years and would be fine with that. What I am wondering is if you c an get the au pair j-1 visa twice if you have already extended on your first time around. Does that make sense ?.

Is she still a student? Prerequisite for J1 is to be a student under the age of 26. If she fits the category and her local au pair agency has a family for her I don't see why she couldn't get another au pair visa.
