请问J1签证是不是一定要回国服务两年？

vera_fei

我去美国做博士后，理论上来说我是要回国服务两年的，但是我上周收到签证，签证和DS2019表上都写了我不需要回国服务，我想请问大家这种情况是不是以后不需要回国服务两年了，谢谢！
另外，我想请问，我的签证是多次往返的，是不是以后回国就不需要返签了，也不需要check那吗？

关于2年问题找到一个官方答案
The "Two year rule" means that,
after an applicant finishes his J program, he must return to China
for two years before he is eligible to obtain a work or immigrant visa.
It does not apply to applicants applying for another J or F visa.
There are limitations on the amount of time someone can stay in
the U.S. on a J program. The limitations depend on what kind of J
program the applicant is doing. You should check with the international
student services office at your U.S. university to find out how long
you can stay in the U.S. on your J program.

如果是multiple entry的签证应该在期限之内是不需要返签。

理论上是,通过豁免之后就不需要回国服务;你这种没写的情况不清楚.

签证有效期内当然不需要再签, 签证过期很快,但ds2019没过期的时候,呆在美国仍然合法,但离境之后再回来需要重新签证.
