Our Immigrant Stories – Yeon Me Kim
A South Korean immigrant herself, Senior Attorney Yeon Me Kim helps foreign nationals through many of the same immigration processes she experienced directly.
The J-1 visa offers cultural and educational exchange opportunities in the United States through various U.S. State Department-sanctioned programs. When visitors obtain a J-1 visa, they may have to comply with a two-year home residency requirement in their home country before applying for an immigrant visa, adjustment of status, or change of nonimmigrant status. However, the home residency requirement may be waived in certain cases, such as demonstrating that honoring this requirement would subject you to persecution in your home country. We are here to help you assess your options for securing your desired outcome. We care deeply about your safety and well-being, and you can trust that we will do everything we can to protect your rights.
