How long does it take to get the J1 visa?
It takes six to eight weeks on average to apply for a J-1 Visa and be accepted. Depending on the particular consulate or embassy where you apply, this procedure can take anywhere from one day (if you may apply in person) to four or more weeks. To avoid possible delays, we recommend that you send to CICD your application for J-1 sponsorship well in advance of the desired start date of your training.
