Question: how to get green card after j1 visa?
Answer: If the J-1 holder is a physician and would like to obtain a green card, the applicant should first file for a J-1 waiver. Once the J-1 waiver has been approved, the physician has two options: File for the PERM Labor Certification by a U.S. employer, or. File for a National Interest Waiver (NIW) for an EB-2 green card.
